~500cfs June Run - Plenty of Fun

We had a great day at just above 500cfs with clear water and warm sun.

While it's absolutely low at this level, we did not find it to be boat abusive or uncomfortably bony. The bedrock character channelizes the flow nicely and even the boulder gardens had plenty of water to navigate the lines cleanly. Someone familiar with the run could abolutely have a fun and clean run at these flows, though another couple hundred CFS would've made some of the boofs cleaner.

A video of the run is available here:
