North Fork Trinity River
About
Class IV drops define the North Fork Trinity River through 14 miles of Wild & Scenic corridor managed by the U.S. Forest Service. The primary run from Hobo Gulch to Bridge delivers continuous technical whitewater demanding solid boat control and rapid reading skills. Without a USGS gauge, boaters rely on visual inspection and regional snowpack conditions to time their runs. The Wild & Scenic designation protects the undeveloped character that makes this stretch appealing to expert paddlers seeking committing whitewater away from crowds.
River conditions are community-verified. CFS ranges, difficulty ratings, and access points may not reflect every flow level or seasonal change. Always check current conditions, scout unfamiliar rapids, and paddle within your skill level.
