Still fun at low flow!

Caught the Rapid low and ran the last mile. Very roadside Eastern-style class 3+ at that level (see photos). S Fk Sky gauge was at 2200 cfs, all snow fed. Main Sky gauge was below 5k, a poor correlation. We put in below some wood below the bridge and then very quickly ran into a downed tree not visible from the road that could barely be snuck on the right. Not far above the Beckler Rd bridge there's a nasty tree jam on the right that's visible from the road with water pushing into it. We were able to slip over a tree across the entire channel, but it's worth a good pre-run scout. Keep 'er in the middle, hit some boofs and then go get more laps, no shuttle required!
