September 28th 2016. Whitman Dam road IS repaired but a bit rough from Mile 19 to put -in @ 23.0. Ran upper Goulias section. Gage reading 7.73 and falling. Put in @ around 1:00 pm, a bit late as the final stretch of the river which is a VERY fun rock garden we were looking straight into the sun and had quite a few collisions with surprise rocks. Overall Very fun and doable but would like a bit more water. A few of the 2 stage drops were a bit boney on the second drop. Took out where river touches road at small camp spot on river right. Didn't take very good notes on each feature as it was our first time running this section.

Road washed out at 23.7 miles, which is above the put in. The road is also washed out below the put in at 19.6 miles.

Good level. On the lower end of perfect. There were a number of good play waves in addition to the ledge features.
