1st major rapid is Rainie Falls. The run over the falls wasn't going to go so we banged down the fish ladder on the far right. Easy enough in a rubber boat but not sure if the wood boat wouldn't have been reduced to toothpicks.
A cool thing about the Rogue is the historical homesteads that are in the canyon. This is the Rogue river ranch located at Mule Creek.
Stair Creek Falls tumbles into the river at the tail end of Mule Creek canyon rapids. Who do you think was the most scared in Mule Creek rapids?
The crux of the run are Blossom Bar Rapids. Enter far left and then tuck in behind the big boulders in the middle to reach the middle chute and then pick your way through the boulders down below. All boats made clean runs.
Ashley and Maureen about to make the entrance eddy and cut behind the roks in the middle at Blossom Bar.
Camp 3 at Upper Upper Solitude camp. Not much in the way of sandy beaches but the scenery more than makes up for it.
View upriver above camp from the Rogue river trail.

A great trip!
