All the intensity of this course is packed into the first mile. There are falls, holes, and big rapids. One stretch of rapids is called, The Tub, after which it's recommended to steer right when the river splits to paddle through Particle Accelerator. Parking at the put-in is limited and a short carry to the water below the dam is required - simply find a suitable launch site. At take-out, find a place to park along Lenny Road and take-out where comfortable. Be attentive to restricted parking areas. Extreme caution should be used when attempting this course and only experienced paddlers should consider it. Be sure to study the route in more detail before attempting in order to be familiar with all hazards. Before going, check water levels as well as when the dam releases its water. Difficulty rating can fluctuate depending on water levels.
