This is a seasonal creek, not a river. The picture below is from early April. The only possible way to kayak or raft this would be during or immediately after a major storm. And the brush on the creek banks would likely be your undoing. I've never heard of anyone ever kayaking this creek. ...

Cherry Flat Reservoir

Did the same in early 60's, great fishing and wildlife spot. Followed inlet to some outstanding fishing! Great days!!...In the late 1960's and early 70 maybe 71 we use to sneak onto the property to fish. The fish were very nice size as this was posted property and may not be ventured to the lake. Great memories....
