Trip Report

Spring 2003 floods brought some changes. A riverbed shift at the takeout means more water flows around the left side of the bridge piling. 2 1/2 and even 2 1/4 are now good levels high enough for nice play on the first half of the run. Add roughly 1/2 a foot or better to the reading to get the old gague equivilant.

The hole in the runout is long gone. The nice man at the put in advises that a private buyer is attempting to buy the (presumably Bowater)land at his put in location potentially closing this access point in the future. There is a group that is making efforts to protect some of the land near the runout. More info is needed on this group to perhaps advise them of the potential land purchase at the top of the mountian.
