West Cherry Creek
Before we could jump on Upper Cherry Creek, we had to wait a few days for it to come in. So the next best thing to Upper Cherry Creek is West Cherry creek.







Drop after quality drop.....




West and upper Cherry confluence



And of course we need to thank the 1950-1995 UCSD fraternity brothers from cooking us lobster bisque, pizza, and fresh brownies....thanks for hiking that in guys! Sadly they were not there when we came back for UCC





Don't be fooled by all the hype around Upper Cherry Creek. West Cherry is an amazing run in its own wright, and from the confluence down to the lake its very fun pushy whitewater!
