Whitewater
Favorite runs:
-
Chili Bar, South Fork American. Old dependable.
-
Middle Fork American. Tunnel Chute is a blast.
The long class II middle section can be a drag though.
-
Kings, Banzai. Spring runoff on the Kings often gets into
the 7000-10000 CFS range. Big water fun. A long drive from the Bay Area,
but worth it.
-
East Fork Carson. An easy 2-day float through high desert
wilderness. Hot springs at the overnight stop.
-
Stanislaus, Camp 9. Haven't done this since
New Melones was filled. One of these years when the reservoir is low I'd
like to go back.
