Comments: Nice little creek, though as with other smaller creeks the creek walking borders on bushwhacking. The big drop was really nice, gives you a good shower even in lower flows. We used the anchor high DCL, puts you right in the flow the whole way down. We removed a very marginal anchor at R3, webbing slung on a dead, downed tree right at the pourover. Be very aware of rockfall, last person down dislodged a significant sized boulder halfway down the pitch.

Comment: Fun trip. Probable first run through as we didn’t see any anchors. Great for winter/ spring trips when the snow is cutting off other cool places. Be mindful of the flaky basalt on the big drop as it is incredibly hazardous.
