Summary
The Class IV-V rapids provide an adrenaline rush, with obstacles such as tight chutes and steep drops. The best time to float this section of water is in the spring, between April and June, when the snow melt creates higher water levels. Recommended flows are between 1,000-2,000 CFS. It is important to note that this section requires advanced paddling skills and proper safety equipment. While challenging, the Skeletor's Gorge river run offers stunning canyon scenery and an unforgettable experience for thrill-seekers.
