Description
Nice bouldery rapids for the first part, a short gorge near the end, then a pleasant runout to the Illinois. There is a cross-county style hike in where a trail used to exist, the distance is less than a mile and mostly open terrain. The Illinois @ Kerby running 3,000 cfs and the Elk River \[541-332-0405\] running at 4.4' was a nice flow for the run. Trip Report here.
