It is my new favorite run. The paddling is fantastic, and the setting is beautiful! It was my graduation exercise for my 2019 paddling training. I got a B.See the Team Socal video to get a feeling for it.It is 15 to 17 miles of class IV/IV+ with three class V rapids. I felt comfortable on the class IV/IV+ after a summer of UY runs. The class V was a different story. I screwed up Vortex (V) and swam. I did fine on Westwall (V), and I walked Carson Falls (V). The 2 mile carry to the put-in is the crux! At least it is downhill.I will do this run several times a year going forward. PM me if you are interested in my trip report and joining in a future run and paddling other sections of the Kern.--Let there be no peace without justice, no worker without rights, no child without future, no elder without care, no individual without dignity.
