Segment #4
Length: 7 River Miles |
Float Time: 3-4 Hours |
Avoid Floating 6 pm to 10 am, July 1 - October 31
This area offers multiple recreation opportunities from great whitewater adventures to steelhead and trout fly-fishing, hiking in old-growth forests and waterfall viewing. In this segment boaters will experience four Class III rapids and five Class II+ rapids. The river takes on a "pool-drop" nature as the rapids are separated by long stretches of flat water. The Class III rapids are very challenging at all flows and include a portage at Bathtub rapid at lower flows (below 1000 CFS). Rafters should scout carefully. At high flows in the spring, the rapids feature huge waves and holes that can flip a raft. The launch site is across the highway from Bogus Creek Campground, and the take-out is just down-river from the Susan Creek Day-use Area.
SCOUTING RECOMMENDED FROM LEFT BANK. RAFTS MUST PORTAGE BELOW 1000 CFS.
