Trip Report

ReporterJeff Macklin

Jason Hilton is running Floating Boulder. The severely undercut Floating Bolder is on the left edge of this photo. Note the pinning potential of the 'tee-pee' rocks just behind Jason's right paddle blade. If you look closely, you can see wood in the 'tee-pee tunnel' ... not a good place!
The Floating Boulder 'sneak route' begins (where the green boat is) and stays on far river right ... scraping over rocks in shallow water.
