Paddling on the Forgetmenot Creek

Forgetmenot Creek - A section with great variety. Long rapids interspersed with chill floats , makes for a pleasant paddle for getting a mix of excitement and time to look at the views. In a similar manor to some of the whitewater on the nearby Morkill, gradient and rapids seem to come out of nowhere and disappear just as quickly. The rapids start at class II-III and progress nicely into class IV- boogy and the section finishes with a bang as the final 200 ish meters drop quickly in a stack of class IV rapids and two small waterfalls (IV+ to V-). There are no canyons through this section and all the rapids can be scouted and portaged from river level. But be on the lookout for logs, there were a couple river wide logs through the float sections.
