French Broad

July 5th: French Broad Barnard to Stackhouse. ~1600 cfs. 'this is the perfect river for me to canoe, i could have done every rapid' - G. Everyone liked the jump rock. S.W swam out of sitontop at the ledges, B (model) swam quite a few times. G guided the ranger with 4 people in it down the second rapid (the slide). G mini'd turtle rock, S turn, and big pillow, s turn was a little tricky and pillow was easy. great lunch spot on river left after big pillow.
