The ideal streamflow range for this stretch of the river is between 300-1000 cubic feet per second (cfs). The class rating for the river ranges from II-III, with some sections reaching class IV depending on the water level.
The segment mileage for the run is approximately 7 miles, starting at Forest Road 132C and ending at Forest Road 179. Along the way, there are several notable rapids and obstacles, including "Little Niagara," "S-Turn," and "The Big Slide."
