4 April 2004. Put on just below Whitaker Falls and took out past Bergoo, below Cherry Falls. Water level around 5.8 feet or so. Good run, just a litle scrapy at spots. Class II-III all the way. Cherry Falls was fun, with many trout fishermen as spectators! River was generally open, with only one fallen tree to carry around just below Bergoo. Also looked at the Gorge above the fish hatchery, but was too low to run. Good water, cold weather. Didn't run the next day due to a total accumulation of 8 inches of snow at our campsite just below Whitaker Falls. Fishing was lousy, with only three trout caught on 3 April by my friend Greg.
