Devil's Forks (2)

Both creeks are about 2 miles long before joining at Twin Devil's Falls. Both creeks have numerous ledge and slide drops and a couple of real tight boulder gardens plus a couple of nasty undercuts for good measure. Both have a 10-12+ ft waterfall in addition to the Twin Falls. Big Devil's has more ledge drops and Long Devil's has more slide drops. I was the first known descent in a OC-1 of the creeks. Dale Barton was the first known OC-1 to run the Twin Devil's Falls. Cowper Chadbourn and Nate Kline were the first known kayakers to run the falls.
