Gale River

At this level the guage is under water.
In very high water this large hole, spanning much of the river, guards the entrance to the gorge. First ferry across the river above the hole, then sneak by on river left while the current tries to take you into the river left rock wall. Or do what I did, and carry your boat around the gorge when the guage is completely under water.
Entrance to the gorge when the guage is completely under water.
Two paddlers scout the entrance to the gorge in very high water. The river careens of the rock ledge on river right, then takes a sharp right turn when it hits the rock wall on river left. A nasty hydraulic spans much of the river as it makes the turn here.
