Trip Report

ReporterFritz Crytzer

9 May 04: Ran this stretch at about 3.0 ft with my daughter in a kayak and her boyfriend, beginner, running open boat tandem with me. Wouldn't want to run this at a lower level, as it was a bit scrapy. Left some green vinyl from my Mohawk XL15 on several rocks! Pipeline and Target were fun, though. Caught the eddy river left of Target Rock, ferried out above the rock and continued down. Was a fun maneuver. All in all, a good river, mostly Class I-II at this level, with Pipeline and Target a good II+ or III.
