Tohickon Creek

Update..a few months back a small (ahem) rockslide blocked this crack..IF the rocks are still in place then it may be safer than it was, but I personally am staying away from this line just to be safe.

Folks who were at the Tohickon creek release 11/5-11/6 probably already know this but for those who weren't but might get there the next time it rains, there is a new pinning hazard that I want to publicize.

DON'T take the 'sneak' line on far river left on second ledge, the one where you drop through a slot into a pool and miss all the holes. I've run it many times but now the drop has changed (I'm told a log that was in the crack between two rocks is gone) and now it's very dangerous! I personally saw 4 pins in that crack over the weekend, and there were many more. The crack was catching all boats big and small but it was far worse with a playboat, one that I saw with a very small boat actually had the paddler and boat slip down totally into the crack, all that was above water was one waving hand!

This could have easily been a disaster..so BEWARE!
