I paddled this yesterday at about 1000 cfs. There was a strainer in what has been referred to as 'S-turn rapid'. This rapid is one of the more challenging class II rapids on this section. It is near the end of the run on the river right side of the island up against the river left bank. There is a large tree stump in the inside of the bend of the S turn with the stump facing upstream. There was some water flowing under the stump.This is a potential a pin hazard. At 1000 cfs this was easy to avoid, however at higher flows this may be hazard that should be avoided by novice paddlers.
