Comments: Gorgeous river canyon. Flow was pushy in places, but not that bad. Most of the rapids can be bypassed on one side or another. Lower canyon was sublime. The Olympic's answer to Oneonta Gorge in Oregon, except with zero tourists. Ran Middle Fork Big Creek and the Big Creek Narrows earlier the same day.
