Ice Slough is a popular stretch of the Whitewater River, located in the state of Wyoming. The ideal streamflow range for this run is between 400 and 800 CFS. The segment mileage of this run is around 3.5 miles, and it is rated as a Class III-IV rapid. The run includes several challenging rapids and obstacles, including the Narrows, the S-Turn, and the Gorge. The Narrows is a particularly challenging rapid that requires precise navigation through a tight channel. The S-Turn is a series of tight turns that present a technical challenge to paddlers. The Gorge is a steep, narrow section of the river that requires careful maneuvering to avoid rocks and other obstacles.
