It's better than the gorge because it's above the Missoula wastewater treatment plant. It's about to be a temporary mess though when they take out Milltown dam. After that all clears up, the water quality should be relatively decent...not like the Lochsa, but not wash your mouth out with Tequila gross, either.
Too bad that water is disgusting. Can't be any worse than Alberton Gorge though. Ick.
Ehh, I will take the dirty water any day just to have a super close play spot. Like Root said, it will get better once all the nasty mining tailings wash downstream from Milltown.
this looks very very very cool. awesome stuff man. update update update...not like it really matters to me i don't live around missoula anymore, at least for awhile anyway

Different rules apply.
The first wave is in, it appears to be the main feature (river right). Peeps have been out there almost daily since they let the water back in that channel. Looks sweet!!!!!
I'll take some pics when I remember to bring the cam by there next time.
I was down at the wave after skiing today. Sure was nice to see the river come up a bit. The hole seems to be changing every day. The Kingpin is rockin!
