Big Creek Gorge

Big Creek gorge is 1/4 mile long section of large boulders with narrow chutes in between them. The slots between boulders are not all visible from the upstream end of the rapid and wood blocking a slot is always a potential hazard. It takes time to scout the whole sequence from river left. Skilled and confident boaters can grab eddies on the left and scout each segment. Those who are not interested in running the rapid can climb up to the trail on river right to portage.
