Northgate Canyon is the long stretch of the North Platte River between Routt Access (Colorado) and Six-Mile Gap (Wyoming). ==Description== Beginning not far from the source of the North Platte River, Northgate Canyon is the river's gateway north. The water follows the western flank of the Park Range in Colorado as it plunges at approximately 20 ft/mile through the canyon. The high gradient produces some of Colorado's and Wyoming's best Class III+ rapids, including Windy Hole, Cowpie, Narrow Falls (The Gate), Tootsie Roll, and Stovepipe. In addition to the whitewater, the scenery is beautiful. However, the recent migration of pine bark beetles has caused massive damages to the pine forests. It is not uncommon to see deer, elk, moose, or bear near the river. Once the flows begin to recede and the water clarity to increase, the stream is a fun, albeit often difficult, trout fishery. Most of the riverbank is public (National Forest) land. It should be kept in mind however, that a small section, (visibly marked with several cabins) Gingerquill Ranch is private. Non-emergency landings at the ranch are a violation of Colorado state law and should be avoided.
