Indian Creek (NF Feather)

4/28/05

For the first run of our first Sierras trip, Jon chose Indian Creek, a tributary of the NF of the Feather River. The section is rated V+ and looks like it sounds in Holbeck & Stanley, absolutly horrible yet runnable. We had a short run, Jon, tired, sick, and stuck in a hole.

He lost his paddle and we had to drive to Chico to get another, making our day on Indian Creek short. But boy the poison oak helped me remember it for weeks. (somehow I thought we were above 4100' and walked through massive amounts of it (hey it looked slightly different than it does here). It still itched the same. We'll probably be back some day.
