3.5 to 4.5' great play on the lower.

After a few good waves you get to the first

river-wide hole. Eddy both sides - it's excellent

for all tricks- even loops.

There is one hole on a right bend shortly

below the surf spot which feeds into a left eddy

backed by a rock and wall, and it comes up

fast. Left to right cut required, or out the back

of the eddy.




The 'undercut right wall' is easy to go left of if

you see it coming in advance - stay left each

time you see big cliff on river right and you'll

breeze it.




Several flooded islands make it hard to find

the river-bad. We often found clean channels

far right.




Best front-surfing just below confluence with a

big creek on left. You'll want to walk back up

again and again - a camp on the right makes it

possible (kinda long).




Couple more tree-lined mazes (one far right,

and go L at the RR bridge) and you're done. <
