About
Ideal for kayak. The put-in is hard to locate, so a local guide can save a morning of searching, and a shuttle driver is essential as leaving a vehicle at the put-in is unsafe. The surrounding country is remote and undeveloped, with no man-made hazards. The principal obstacle is a 6m waterfall, runnable at some levels but requiring a proper scout. Playboaters will find several waves along the way.
