Ran from Flaming Geyser Park to Porter Levee Natural Area (before the Hwy 18 bridge). In over 15 years its the best run I've had down this section. Water level was perfect! No dragging bottom and a few fun class I-II rapids. Took 3 hours with just one portage about half-way down to avoid a strainer. This one is always there and we always portage. Easy to do with a nice sand bar. There was a gap and we probably could have run it, but we're novices and didn't want to risk it. Saw a few people putting in at the park on inflatables. Seems insane as the water was really cold and swift.
