This segment of the river is rated class III-IV, and covers a distance of approximately 6 miles. The river features several challenging rapids, including "Rock Drop," "Waterslide," and "Log Jam," each requiring precise maneuvering through tight channels and around obstacles.
Regulations in the area require all paddlers to wear a Coast Guard-approved personal flotation device (PFD) and to carry a whistle. Additionally, the Forest Service has designated this section of the river as a Wild and Scenic River, which means that paddlers must follow Leave No Trace principles and pack out all trash.
