Typical drop.
I believe this is the top of Out Of Sight. At this level it's just rock dodging mostly.
Left at the island...
This is the last main drop. It flows over a couple rocks and pushes against the road support wall. Nothing threatening, just unusual.
What creek isn't complete without one of these? Don't even THINK of boofing the lip, there's no pool at the bottom. Flat concrete.
3 ways of dealing with this. Portage left and bushwhack, portage right along the concrete wall, or take the tiny, bony side creek channel just before the dam on the left.
This strainer is on the lower section below the fish hatchery. We managed to squeeze in on the left side, but at higher water that wouldn't be an option.
