Smaller site and open to others passing thru so not very private. Good fishing in the area!

Great kitchen area for a smaller group, and close by to good fishing under the rapids. You can also fish directly from the site in several spots. Only had a handful of groups paddle by over a couple of days in a very busy August. Landing is fine, not great. One tent pad is pretty good, and you could probably fit two tents in that area. The other tent area is much lumpier and not great. Bear hanging spots are scarce/sketchy, but it seems the days of hanging are ending anyway as barrels are much more effective.

Nice location, decent kitchen/campfire area, but sketchy tent pads. The well-used ones are going to be rainwater-collection areas because they were somewhat sunken and are formed like a catch at the bottom of a rise.

Decent landing with shallow water. Elevated site with views in both directions. Kitchen area is sloped but, not too bad - good sitting logs. Probably not a 3* site if traveling in a larger group (4 )as extra tent pads are rather lumpy & kitchen area would be crowded. Nearby rapids provide fishing, scenery & ambiance. Traffic will likely be an issue.
