It's not very far from the Rogue River, but it offers a much wilder ride. More than one thousand rapids rampage along those almost 200 miles.

Most trips either end above falls or begin below them. We're talking heart-stopping rapids. It has nice scenery and lots of wildlife. One of our guides who lead twelve trips on summer, and saw black bear on all of them except one. The Sky rocks.
