River Description
This reach is better known for its fishing and jetboating than whitewater recreation but you can
run all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Roads parallel the river offering several different access
points.
Looking at the topo maps, you'll find a plethora of named features, almost all of which are
simply 'riffles' -- gravel bars and shoals. While this reach is certainly scenic, passing through
some fine canyon areas, at only 5 fpm gradient, the whitewater will most certainly be found
awfully tame compared to other sections of this river.
