Breathtaking vistas plus lots of ‘find the fossil trail’ practice on this challenging one way traverse (~17 miles, ~5500’ gain). A great place to escape crowds and civilization.

3500 CFS. Average moving time 4.8 mph. 2 hours moving time. 2 1/2 hours from put in to take out. A wide and scenic reach, characterized by class II rapids and many islands to navigate around. The S-Bends, class III drops, were the most exciting and challenging but straightforward at this level.
