Trip Report

ReporterMorgan Giddings

Don't let these IV rapid ratings fool you... at higher flows, above 2,500, Mandatory Thrashing gets more challenging... and at 5,000 CFS it can easily turn into a very long ride (or swim). You don't want to swim here, period. Especially not at high flows. People have died... more than once doing that.

It is most definitely an overall V at medium flows, and a V+ at 5,000 or above.
