A) Moore Park to Vogues Rd (up to 8.5 miles)

The Tyler Forks features boulderbed rapids. interspersed by sections of alder swamp, with several steep bedrock drops. Wren Falls (towards the end of the reach) may be one of the most scenic small falls in the state. This reach begins with the "dells" of the Tyler Forks (local name unknown) which is reached by carrying upstream from the end of Moore Road. The river rapidly drops 40+' through a sequence which begins with fast class III feeding into a stepped ledge of 8'-10' and finishing with a fun drop through a rockwalled canyon/dells. This is the most technically challenging drop on this reach. Those who don't wish to run this should put-in at the Hwy 77 bridge as there is only flat water (and likely some deadfall/snags) between the bottom of this drop (at Moore Road) and the bridge. From Hwy 77, the current picks up again through read-and-run boulderbed with one ledge of about 4'. After about a mile and three quarters, things start to slow down as the river enters a section of moving water through alder swamp. When the current starts picking up again, be aware that you are approaching Wren Falls. Wren is a rolled lip vertical of about 10'-12', dropping between vertical rock walls into a deep pool, a very beautiful site and great photo op. The falls approach is pretty straightforward, though you will want all the speed you can muster to launch and avoid the hole at the base. Below Wren there is about a half mile of class II followed by a short stretch of moving water to the Vogues Rd take-out.
