Scouted for wood yesterday again in the hopes that I will get to raft it someday....(I need to get a kayak)

The log jam I previously posted about at Scorpio Creek is gone. There were a couple logs that looked duckable at mile 0.8 between the Slot and the Notch (viewable from the road at 44.780101, -122.011030).

I started making a map of the Breitenbush major rapids, scouts, logs, etc if anyone wants to use it:
