Cedar River

May 8, 2021 Landsburg to below the golf course, about 18 mi. This is a lovely stretch of river so close to Seattle. At 600 CFS we portaged 4 times. First wood is easy to pass on river left under a cliff. First portage log is after red truss bridge, and can be portaged from gravel bar on river left. The old channel at Dore Don had just enough water that we did not have to portage, but there was much knuckle dragging. We checked out the Dore Don portage, which is about 100 ft downstream from the log jam, on left of old channel, marked with red survey tape. Portage is 800 feet long, no climbing over logs, nice put in. Midway between Dore Don and hwy 18 bridge, there is another spanning tree that we could duck under at 600 CFS. 3 portages in the last three miles, which you can skip if you take out at 47.46614862594574, -122.10495620160793. Some warning signs need to be taken down as the wood is gone or moved. We could see all the wood from what we thought was a reasonable distance, except the well marked logs-exit right after a sharp left at Cavanaugh pond.
