| Gauge Reading | 160 cfs at DIRTY DEVIL R AB POISON SP WSH NR HANKSVILLE UT |
| Flow | Medium Runnable |
We put in on 4/17/23 at 930 am and took out at Hite at 445pm.
The flows at Poison Spring were 160 when we started and 120 when we finished. We never had to drag out boats the entire time. When in the boat we average 3.2 mph with a max of 10 in the muddy chutes. We stopped and ate lunch which added to out time.
We were all strong paddlers but we never did push it and we had a stong afternoon wind after 2 pm.
There is great camping at the put in and the take out at Hite is great.
The muddy chutes at the last mile are super fun but they are a class II+ or III. The rest of the trip is class I.
