Description
A steep half mile section of bouldery whitewater exists a short distance upstream of Warm Springs on Shitike Creek.  Some easy hiking is required. Flow level recommendations are estimates.  250 cfs was floatable but manky.  It seems 400-500 cfs would be ideal, but stopping would get challenging. There are well travelled animal trails alongside the steep section that can be used for access and scouting.
