Trip Report

ReporterPaul Schulte

Ran Piney on 10 Dec 2011. Gauge was 3.1 (~240 cfs). This is about the low end of good. 3.0 may be the minimum. The rapids are good, however, the pools are very shallow at 3.1. Fallen trees are prevalent, especially in the last third of the run. We portaged at least five times due to fallen trees. Be on the lookout for trees!
