Miners in the late 1800’s viewed these eight rapids on
the northern section of the Arkansas as non-navigable
landmarks rather than as the quintessential Class IV
classics that they’re viewed as today; hence they
appointed them the numbers that remain today as their
names. The simplicity of their labels, however, does not
reflect a simplicity in their character. This run is
charged with high-intensity continuous whitewater and
punctuated by the eight notorious Numbers. Paddling the
Numbers requires good physical condition and a minimum
age of 15 years*.

Pine
Creek is the steepest, most technical, and 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 Granite
Gorge. A few miles of Class III & IV warm us up for the
spectacular crux of the run, the Gates of Pine Creek,
where the river narrows to half its width and drops 200
feet over the course of one rapid! The bottom portion of
the rapid features a must-make move around a
boat-flipping hole that demands precise paddling and
expertise maneuvering! This rapid is followed
immediately by the pulsing, complex Class V rapid called
Triple Drop! On the full day, continue downstream
through the Numbers, making this one of the greatest
days of whitewater found anywhere! The full day also
includes our delicious, hot fajita lunch. This run
demands good physical condition and a minimum age of 15
years*.
