Low But Enjoyable

| Gauge Reading | 1100 cfs at HUMPTULIPS RIVER BELOW HWY 101 NR HUMPTULIPS, WA |
| Flow | Low Flow |
On 12/9/18, we put in at 1100 cfs and it was bony but still enjoyable for the scenery and the salmon spawning. Ran the slopy seal launch on river left that drops you in just below the sieve. Be mindful that there is a large boulder just under the surface just downstream from the landing zone.
If you are running this section for your first time (as we were), be careful with the hike-in. If you blindly follow the trail, it will lead you to a large bar that is an impentrable jungle of thorns. Leave the trail before the final steep part and head downstream where the thorny bar ends.
