Denny Campground is a whitewater put-in on the New River in Trinity County, California. The New River is a major river system with significant flow and gradient, averaging 12,440 cubic feet per second with a 7-foot-per-mile slope. This is a substantial river with notable current and volume that requires awareness of water dynamics. The site's location at river mile 2040 from the mouth indicates this is in the upper reaches of the New River system with considerable elevation change ahead downstream. Paddlers should be prepared for moving water conditions and understand the implications of the major stream order and average velocity of 5.37 feet per second.
