George Kaider I agree with Brock.......you better hit this one first because it could be gone the next day. Overall, it is an experience that you won't forget. Deep canyon like feel that reminds me of out West paddling in Montana. Better check for wood first at the base of Slate Falls. We did not do so last year and only because most of our group pulled off the river, saw the log, and hike back into the canyon to blow faint whistles at myself, Barry, and Mike did we NOT run the drop and probably saved our lives or at least prevented major injury. We also had a swim that allowed time to pass for the rest of our group to get back an warn us. It was like divine intervention that all of the circumstances came together, which prevented us from running the falls. It was a huge pine tree with massive spikes from broken branches everywhere - so it would have left a few marks...............................................
