Grande Ronde
F. Minam (Wallowa River) to Troy
Chris Herman reports: We just got
off the GR and there is a logjam blocking the right channel at House
Rock. We put in 7/3 at 3,600 and took out 7/6 at 2,500.
We ran this stretch on April 26-27 2012 at near flood stage (13-14K cfs) and there is/was a tree blocking the left side of 'House Rock Rapid'. At our high flows the right channel appeared to be runnable, but it was my first time on the river, it is likely not runnable at flows lower than we had.
We were able to get over the log with little trouble, but if we had seen it sooner we likley would have at least scouted, and perhaps attempted a portage.
