Bridges   

Run Length 2 miles Average Gradient 33 fpm
Difficulty Class III+ Recommended Flow 350-1800 cfs
River Cache la Poudre River Location Fort Collins, Colorado
Author Current Level 60 cfs 
Drainage Cache la Poudre Elevation 5540ft to 5475ft
 
This stretch of the Poudre is considered an intermediate/beginner run, however, given the infamous bridge abutment known as “Killer Bridge” I would reconsider taking anyone down this stretch that can’t confidently maneuver obstacles. The move isn’t that difficult but the consequences could be deadly. The second potential hazard is Red House Hole located at mile marker 114.2. This hole has been known to be a keeper hole at higher levels.
