This
little playspot on the
Klamath river isn't the most amazing in the
world, but during summer flows it seems pretty darn good. It tends to
be good when flows are too high for the more well known
"Schoolhouse"
spot to be in. Marquis is best around 1,300-1,500cfs
Below
Seiad Valley. The
spot is a fun wave hole that's a bit narrow, but has superb eddy
service
and offers up plenty of moves. It's visible from the road about 20
miles upriver from Happy Camp, and four miles downstream of Seiad. The
spot lies just downstream of "Savage Rapid" which has a large pullout
on a sweeping right curve in the road while heading downstream. The
area is also popular with miners whose parked vehicles should make the
pull-out obvious.
