This is a great class II section of water with multiple long, splashy rapids. There are gorgeous deep pools perfect for swimming and playing in the water during break times and it dives below the highway more than other sections giving you a more wilderness feel with less highway noise. A wonderful way to spend a nice relaxing day with the family!
Class I: Easy
Slow moving flat water with a few small riffles and waves.
Class II: Novice/Beginner
Faster moving water with medium sized waves and a few easily avoided obstructions. Some maneuvering required.
Class III: Intermediate
Fast moving water with high irregular waves, narrow passages, holes, strong currents, and obstructions. Precise maneuvering required.
Class IV: Advanced
Long intense rapids with unavoidable waves and holes. Constricted passages require fast maneuvers under pressure. Scouting is necessary the first time and highly recommended after that as well.
Class V: Expert
Extremely long, difficult, and violent rapids that must be scouted every time. Rescue is often difficult so these sections are only recommended for highly experienced boaters in good physical condition.
Class VI: Extreme
Nope!
