We begin our raft trip at the Elk Creek launch site, just downstream from the historic Sunbeam Hot Springs and the Yankee Fork Tributary. Around the bend we encounter Piece of Cake; which starts off the stretch of class II and III rapids that comprise the middle section of the river. We finish with a thrilling three-quarter-mile stretch of class III rapids nicknamed "The Narrows". After the rapids we stop at Jump Rock for a refreshing swim in a deep, clear swimming hole and work up an appetite for a delicious outdoor meal served up at our next stop, lunch camp. After lunch we float through a leisurely stretch of river, allowing time to kick back and relax before we take out at Torrey's Hole.
