Wood in main rapid

I went from Leidl (which is open for camping) to Icehouse in my IK. At 2300 cfs, it's a little tricky to find spots to eddy out and pull up on shore for a break.
I scouted the main rapid (where the river initially meets WA-142) from the right, but it's hard to get a good look because of a side channel coming in. At the river flow, I couldn't easily ford that channel to get closer to the rapid.
There's a big log in rapid to the left of the rock outcrop. It's partially submerged and I was able to just barely paddle over it.
Luckily, there's a route to the right of the outcrop that is narrower, but is totally clear.
