Trip Report

ReporterJeff Macklin

This is a (too low to paddle) view of the river left sieve, 25 feet upstream of the Room of Doom rapid. You are looking downstream into the sieve. The 'Boof' is about 20 feet to the right of this photo. This sieve is not in play at minimum and low-med levels (Baseball Rock not covered) because helpful of the guard rocks. At high flows, the rapid above sends flow directly toward the in-play sieve. It is easy to avoid with catching river right eddy above this feature.
