To get to the put-in cross the North Fork Bridge in the town of Three Rivers and drive 3.5 miles up North Fork Drive until the road crosses the river at Bailey Bridge. Park your car downstream far enough so as not to get it towed in one of the many No Parking areas.
RM 2.6 Put-In
Put in at downstream of Bailey Bridge on the right bank. Watch for barbed wire.This run is not as nice as th one above it. Most people do it once and have had enough. The vegitation along the river is excessive and additional hazards such as hanging vines adds to the hazards described in the run above this. There are a couple of larger rapids near the end of the run. Above 2.5 feet this run gets difficult because of a large amount of brush along the banks.
RM 0.6 The Ledges
The river splits before you get to this drop but both routes are good routes through the ledges. A series of ledges requires some manouvering. At higher water the ledges create some pretty good holes.RM 0.3 Airport (Class 4)
This is the largest rapid on the run and is very good at higher flows.RM 0.2 Airport Bridge
RM 0 Confuluence with Main Kaweah
It is best to continue downstream .5 miles and take out at Cort Gallery below Lower Slicky.
Look upstream Paradise Beach to Bailey Bridge (Class 3+T/4)
