Trip Report

ReporterJonathan Janicki

This is nice shot of Twentymile (back) and the Gage Gulf (foreground) comming together. Dave and I had to fight our way up the hill to snap some pictures, but it was well worth it!
Here is the put in for this awesome run. Shown here is Dave Atkinson making final preparations for the decsent.
This is one of many small ledges near the put in.
Nice and scenic.
I wonder how high this one is?
Dave heads into the chaos! That took some guts to take this shot before heading into a Class V didn't it? I know, I'm vain!
This is a HUGE hole. In fact, when taking the picture I wasn't even that close to the hole. For scale, the tree above the hole was very large and there was plenty of head room underneath it!
Intimidating? Scarry? You bet!!!
You can see how far downstream the hole recirculates.

Nice little waterfall. I think this one is around Mile 5.
Not far above Railroad Rapid.
Do you really want to surf that Dave?
