Oregon whitewater, Jenny Creek Jackson Siskiyou county, Ashland Oregon to Iron Gate Reservoir California section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.   CLASS IV-V+     14 miles   You have got to be kidding. IV-V+???!!!!!! Has someone really run the falls? You make it sound like a like just any old run. It can only be run at the few times there is enough water and for a large part of the run, barb wire, willow thickets in the channel and recluses with shotguns are the main obstacles. Only the last few miles has whitewater of note and it is challenging. I ran this section in the mid eighties and claim along with my     buddies Kent Erskine and Max Linn a first descent.
