Trip Report
| Reporter | Devin Kuh |
| Gauge Reading | 1000 cfs at HUMPTULIPS RIVER BELOW HWY 101 NR HUMPTULIPS, WA |
| Flow | Low Flow |
we put in river right after bushwhacking approx 1/4 mile upstream from the bridge and going down a gully. Rope your boats.
There is a massive log jam/landslide(20-30ft tall)below the last rapid at the exit of the gorge. At about 1000 cfs, we were able to paddle around it(miraculously) on the left with ease. Unsure of how this line would fair at other levels and could close with any amount of new would and become essentially impassable.
Also, there is a piece of wood at the. Orrin of the third major rapid that largely blocks both exit options. Portage right.
