Trip Report

ReporterMike Mowrer

Ran the lower half of this section a couple days ago @ 12.4. Had just enough water to make it interesting. The road makes a tight s turn around one of the interstate bridges. We put in here and ran to the next small bridge. Really fun class 3-3+ section. Scouted two days later @ 13.8. TOTALY differant creek. Much faster, but still class 3. Haven't run the first half of the lower, but gonna try this week. Will try to get pics and video up as we run more. We will be out there a lot this spring. The only problem is all of the STEEL. Be very careful near the bridges.
