Putin DetailsWhen driving east/north from Barlow Pass pull over at the first spot you see the river. You'll see a class II river coming in from your right side. There's a camp site to put in at. |
Takeout DetailsTake out at a pull out where a small, short trail leads down to the beginning of the lake, not hard to figure out. I'll post the mileage later. |

Other IssuesWatch your shit. Somebody rubbed the dust off three of my windows and looked in while I was paddling. |
Fun FactsSlightly smaller the section below the lake, this more intimate stream bed keeps the excitement up. |
Run Description [Season: Spring, Summer]Lots of drops on this section. Lots of wood, too. One portage due to channel spanning wood. A couple times I got out on the wrong side and saw later that the other side went okay. Some big drops on this section too.
