Pine Creek is the steepest, the most technical, and the most continuous section of whitewater on the entire Arkansas River!  We launch in the sleepy mountain village of Granite, which quickly fades away upon entering beautiful Granite Gorge.  Several miles of Class III-IV warm us up for the spectacular crux of the mile-long, Class V run, Pine Creek, where the river narrows to half its width and drops 200 feet over the course of one rapid!  This Class V is followed immediately by another pulsing, complex Class V called Triple Drop!  For the best day of whitewater on the Arkansas River, run the full day ("The Gauntlet"), where you continue downstream through the Class IV Numbers. One of the greatest days of whitewater in the world!  The full day also includes our hot fajita lunch. This run demands good physical condition and a minimum age of 15 years.
