NFR 19 to Jack Creek Rec Area (6.2 miles)

Beware of downed wood in some of the willow jungles and the low water bridge above Knopper's Ford. This bridge is in a blind corner with many willows obstructing the view with fast current making for a dangerous combo. Watch for the yellow/orange blaze on trees and stop to portage before entering the willows above the bridge. This bridge is about 1/2 mile below the house on river left along a long pool in the creek. This is a sweet class II+ to III creek as the name sugests. Consists of small ledge type drops with a few larger ones thrown in to go along with some tight willow jungles. The first rapid 'Wake-up Call', just below the put-in bridge, is a short offset drop next to a small bluff wall. Some of the bigger rapids are located within the next mile. Some nice ledge drops are located between the hazard bridge and Knoppers Ford. The largest drop 'Sugar Falls' is located at the end of a series of ledges below Knoppers Ford. The Falls is a 3-4 foot ledge with the most popular routes being down the a narrow tounge or a tight boof on the left side.
