Price

We did the Price river daily run 5/8/23.  The put in for this is at the end of the access road where it crosses the river.  This cuts out lots of boogie water and around 12 miles of the trip. The road as of today was in great shape and almost anything could go down it.  The run paddle time was 3 hours on the price and one hour on the green(it was running at 20000).  Any stops for lunch or for other reasons would add to that.   It was 74 and sunny and with a 3 mm wet suit that was perfect.   In my opinion when the water gets higher the river gets easier.  The one class IV would be a straight III at flows above 600 and all the rocks would be gone in long canyon.  We did this on a monday and saw no one for the entire trip.  This is a great trip to teach people about picking good lines on curves and to practice surfing on small waves and jumping in small eddys.   As of today all the wood was gone in little big drop and believe or not you could run the right side now but it would be spicy.  The left is much safer and easier.
