Catch a micro eddy river left to scout or portage. The s-bend at the beginning of Pinecreek is fast and pushy.

The s-bend move is left or right to avoid a big hole. Swims here can be brutal even deadly so scout carefully and assess your skill levels before entering this section. Below the s-bend it mellows before into the triple drop. Stay center and all will be fine. Below the triple drop the river goes into some fun class IV rapids.
