This substantially dewatered reach of the Paint River has a sweet (if a bit brief) stretch of whitewater. A number of minor boulder-bed and bedrock-intrusion (ledge) drops precede the 'main event'.

Horserace Rapids Horserace Rapids, exit
Horserace Rapids is a couple hundred yards of action through a scenic dells area (above left). Unfortunately, the action is 'cut short' as one reaches the backwater from the next dam downstream (background of photo, above right).
