Access at Dingford Creek Bridge

Access at the Dingford Creek Trailhead on river right. This access is at mile 18.0 on the Middle Fork Road where the road is gated. It requires a high-clearance vehicle to drive up to this access. To continue upstream beyond this point you will need to hike. From the trailhead, it's a short walk on a trail down to the river where a trail bridge crosses the river. You can also reach this access by hiking up the trail on river left from the Middle Fork Trailhead at the Taylor River confluence (a great option for packrafts). The banks are steep and it is a bit of a scramble up to the trail from river level. This bridge is the dividing point between class IV (upstream) and class III (downstream) whitewater.
