The whitewaters of Six Mile Creek gives kayakers and rafters a thrill of a lifetime as they run the water which drops over fifty feet per mile as it flows from the Chugach Mountains on Kenai Peninsula in Alaska, USA. This kayaker leans to one side while working with the rapids, but trying to gain control may be a fight in which he may not win.
Six Mile Creek is definitely not a place for a beginner kayaker as the speed of the creek is very dangerous in places and experience is a necessity. Rafters take to the river with an experienced team as once you make it through one rapid, the next one is not too far off with little time to prepare.
This is an exhilarating adventure while visiting the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska for many water enthusiasts, while some tourists would rather stay on land to watch.
