Ran Mammy's today for the first time with good water after the flood of Feb 2019. It was considerably more fun than expected. The first few miles resemble a drainage ditch with class I and II water but then it cranks up to class III with long sections that move pretty good, and a couple of steeper slide/ledge type drops. We never had to portage but there were some tricky spots getting around all the wood. The flow approximately quadrupled with the addition of the 'Tiny Piny' which wasn't so tiny today, and then Fall Creek added another portion and the confluence with White's at least doubled the flow making for a big water exit. At this flow (4 or 4.5 feet on the White's gauge at the takeout) I might not bring a club type group here as it would stink to have swimmers in the long continuous class III sections. At lower water I'm sure it mellows out but gets more boat abusive.
