Putin in looking at the south west face of the Deer Creek Range(headwaters)simulator gorge, looking downstream. good class IV, and some techy pool drop V w/pin spots.
After the simulator theres a mile or mile and half of bluegrass veriety III ranch creeking. Some boulders but enough to keep you busy. The walls of the canyon are clearly visable as you paddle up and it gives a sense of adventure, good and bad.... 150 was min for the gorge and 240 would have made it alots of fun. The gorge walls start working there way sooner than expected with the gradient picking increasing till the gorge proper.

Gobstopper
most of the water inbetween looked like this pretty busy and desperately in need of more cfs.

The take out bridge and the level. The top of bottom beam would be ideal and this is why.
overall if i had the option of running this creek again at the same flow id have my shit ready in 2 minutes.. road access does partially limites those with 4 wheel drive only and it is so worth the work. private property so im not going to post access for all on this little gem.. if deer is to high and same with boxelder chance are this could be killer.
