Description
A very distinctive rapid is just before Chilkoot Creek comes in on the left. A long slide suddenly drops 10 feet into a pool with an angular boulder. The trick is to avoid smacking the boulder. Scout or portage on left. Then follow the trail around to the left up and across Chilkoot Creek, then up the hill to the campgrounds.
