The section of the North Fork of the Smith River between Low Divide Road and the town of Gasquet is a popular Class IV whitewater run. The river is surrounded by a narrow canyon and steep sided rocky cliffs blanketed in a thin forest of evergreens. The rare carnivorous Pitcher Plant is indigenous to the area and can be found growing on the walls of the canyon. Although the shuttle is long, the enjoyment of this run will be well worth it. For convenience, there are local shuttle drivers to save some time: Annie at (707) 457-9576 or "Barefoot" Brad at (707) 457-3365.
