Class 5 "This run is the fuckin shit"
4 hours on river, To get to put in drive 6.6 km from take out bridge( locals call it the jumping bridge), You should find an old overgrown road on your left,walk down it for 50 meters and then turn into the bush on your left, bush bash hell fuck your way through it for 15mins or until you reach the river.Really nice run, goes through a canyon with 200m high walls. Gets really constricted in the canyon to about 5 meters wide in some parts. Loads of awesome drops, some really hard rapids and some really hard portaging. The locals call this one their "Gem" and it is totally amazing, one of the best runs I have ever done. Would be a wise move to take someone who's done the run before!!

Anything from 0.6 to 1.1 should be good
Good luck and enjoy,
