Description

NOTE: All information is tentative, based solely upon online aerial views. In particular, rapids ratings are purely conjecture, and could be considerably misleading! Anyone who has paddled this section and who can supply more accurate (first-hand) information is encouraged to help out your fellow boaters via the "Add a comment" button (which should appear below for all logged-in users) or by contributing a photo, video, or other report!

About a half-mile into the run (just after Fourmile Creek enters from the left), gradient picks up, and you should have nearly a half-mile of fairly continuous good gradient (rapids). There is nothing apparent which indicates anything 'big' through here, so I'm guessing continuous class II-ish, maybe pushing places/times into III-ish territory.
