woody creek & toothache overview
Easier than the Slaughterhouse section, this section provides continuous intermediate whitewater through beautiful Woody Creek Canyon. As the Roaring Fork continues through Lower Woody Creek, experience several small canyons featuring exciting semi-technical rapids. Be ready for a little more excitement as you will encounter the class III+ Toothache rapid! A good mix of relaxing floating, fun wave trains, and a few pool drop rapids this is a relatively easy section, ideal for the beginner. Enjoy the colorful scenery of the red cliffs, green forests, and blue skies above.
