Subject: River changes: post flood

Just went down Robe today. Every rapid on that river has changed. Some dramatically. The biggest change is that T1 and T2 are pretty much gone, and all of that gradient is now lost at once in Last Sunshine. And the only way to portage and/or scout Last Sunshine is to get out on River Right at Tunnel Rapid (basically the first one), and walk through the tunnel and take a look at Last Sunshine from the bottom. It will likely be a portage for most people and I recommend just portaging to the bottom of it. There are some other major changes, however, they are easy enough to figure out with some prudent scouting.
