Description
This is a pristine and beautiful run, mainly class I with a few class II thrown in. Because it is wider than the upper reach, there are only a couple of logjams on this section. It is also longer (about 6-7 miles) and has longer shuttle. This section would be a great extender to canoe camping the Clear Fork.
