Trip Report

ReporterTrevyn Leighton

Had a good run at 3.7. Lots of river level scouring from the flood. Still tons of evidence from downed trees and log jams. Most of the major rapids were the same, but the boogie made from small boulders will be different. Portaged 3 times for wood either completely across the river or in bad places, as well as twice more 1 person got out to clear wood out of the way.

River is tons of fun at higher water, but there are some good sized holes.
