The Upper Gore Creek river run in Colorado is a Class IV/V+ section of whitewater, with steep drops and technical challenges. The run is best navigated by experienced paddlers with advanced skills in river reading and rapid negotiation. The river is narrow and fast-moving, with obstacles like boulders, overhanging trees, and steep drops that require precise maneuvering. The best time to float this section of water is during the spring runoff, which typically occurs in May and June. The recommended flow range for this section is 200-400 cfs, but it can be run up to 800 cfs with caution.
