Run description:
Rees is a nice constant creek with at least 1 class IV slide somewhere in the middle. With the exception of the aforementioned IV, all else is ‘read and run’ fun. The put-in is at the end of the road beyond a huge pile of wood (logging depot). For a nice hike, head up the river left tributary at the put-in a couple hundred metres to an absolutely beautiful (yosemite-style) waterfall.
