Description
This section begins with a beautiful meadow. Downstream the river becomes class II-III, however the river is difficult to run due to the abundance of wood. Just upstream from the takeout is a play hole created by a concrete gauging station. Flows 200-400 cfs. Season: Spring/Summer as upstream reservoirs exceed capacity.
