Deschutes, Harpham Flats to Sandy Beach, Class III
This 11-mile stretch is the classic day section through Maupin, with big waves. SS#184. There are several class III rapids with the big 3: Wapinitia, Boxcar and Oak Springs Rapids. This is pool drop with big waves and low technicality of moves. If you flub up, there is a nice calm pool of water to recover. Very little wood, deep fluffy water with big waves. Oak Spring rapid flushes out through rocky ridges that require some technical maneuvering at low water and less desirable to swim. I will be rowing a raft and can offer 3-4 additional folks a ride on the raft. I am able to loan duckie, or another raft if anyone is confident rowing. Contact me with questions.
Combine this day with Aug 10, Class I Deschutes (see separate post) for a full weekend on the Deschutes. Due to the need to secure the permits and any campsites, please register and or cancel by Aug 7th.
There are several fees required including river permit, tribal fees for use of launch and take out, shared camping expense, paid shuttle (maybe). Expect approximate per person expense of $30-35.
