comments	The entrance to the rapid referred to as playpen has changed and there is now a nasty sieve on river left across from a large flat topped boulder, see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Icr9f3g4Sn4 at exactly 3:02 you will see the paddler takes the old line between the two rocks (now shifted) I got pinned between this is the new look http://members.tripod.com/fun2001/New_Haven_Sieve_looking_downstream.JPG http://members.tripod.com/fun2001/sieve_close_up.JPG http://members.tripod.com/fun2001/New_Haven_Sieve_looking_upstream.JPG The line used to be running between these two rocks but consensus is that one of them shifted downstream at some point in the winter, closing the gap between them and thus creating an ugly sieve. If you are going to run it, run river right hugging the flat topped rock. Everybody be safe out there. Please pass the word on to anybody u know looking to run this stretch. -scott
