Good Run for the Falls - Andrew Yates

May 11, 2016


We ran High Bridge to Shippard Falls at ~270cfs and found this to be a perfect level for the falls. There were also two class 4 rapids of note between HB and the falls (both clean). The first of the Shippard drops could be run and the rest portaged if desired. If running the second, the third becomes must-run which sucks because the third is also the mankiest (though felt clean at this flow). The weir is safe to run with a straight boof and has weaknesses on the LH and RH sides.
