Trip Report

ReporterMichael Stephenson

We ran Citico at low water this weekend (water below the top of the bridge). It's still a lot of fun at this level. I just wanted to point out that there is a bad pinning spot in the far right slot of the 3-slot rapid at this level. There is a piton rock below the slot center or left-center. At the low water level, the tendency if trying to boof off the rock is to get up on the rock and get turned back left and into the piton rock. Quite a few of us pinned their briefly this weekend. I personally pinned and was stuck head down (but with a big air pocket) until my friends could yank me out (yikes!). Be careful on this one at low water.
