It's even bigger, and we need some new gage to go higher. Trailer-trash hole was sweet for loops and the waves below kept us busy much too long. This short stretch (put-in to 1/2 below trailers) would be a great park and play!

You can walk out to Todd Town rd.

Walked Hell's Kitchen - approach makes it hard to find the tongue and the right is UGLY. Also walked 2nd to last big one, where you normally hit a boof on the left and there is a sieve on right: awful hole center and tough to stop above it. Many, many big fluffy rapids (8' waves common) some big holes to miss, and knowing the clear channels through the trees was a real plus. Probably the closest thing to your typical BC boating on the East Coast (without the vert wall and waterfalls).

Ran from Hell's Kitchen to TO in 1 hour10min including 2scouts. Would have played more if we had the time.
