1100 and dropping slowly on CC lewis was a nice first time flow. It was a little scrapy up top but all the rapids went fine. One wood portage in the top half around what looked like a fun drop and then the portage of Event Horizon (the first drop of which was clogged with wood). We portaged left at event horizon. Pretty quick up and over with one pitch of boat lowering to get back down to river level.

We did the bushwhack route into the trail which saved a couple miles of hiking, putting in at the base of Blackhole Falls. The run was generally clean and still high quality. There was one spot where downstream visibility was blocked by an old growth, Adam ended up committing to it and it ended up being one of the larger rapids and required ducking an old growth log, most of us ended up portaging on the right. Event Horizon was looking cleaner than it has but we still portaged right, one person got lost and it took awhile to regroup. Good stuff below that, and Smokin' Aces was all runnable.

We tried a new access up the roads on river-left, they were mostly snow covered so we had a long hike and the water level was too low. This access dropped us in about a mile above Black Hole Falls and there were a bunch of small, fun slides and ramps. We scouted the falls and portaged on the right, aside from it being a tall falls, the lead in is tricky.

Matt King and I checked out North Siouxon the Sunday of the Northwest Creek Comp. We had intended to put in at Black Hole Falls but I messed up the logistics and we put in about a mile below it. We had a great time on this pioneering trip and found the creek to be runnable, beautiful, and worth returning to. We ran everything other than Event Horizon and the first part of Smokin' Aces due to wood.
