Description

At the Camas Creek confluence, the North Fork John Day River experiences a significant volume increase as the tributary enters from river right. While specific rapid characteristics are unclear from available data, paddlers should be prepared for potential hydraulic changes, altered water flow, and potential debris or sediment from the creek entering the main river channel.
