Trip Report

ReporterClay Wright

Nice run . . . several fast slides with a couple

drops you can run most anywhere. Hard to

boat scout - blank horizon lines with fast

shallow water draws you in and over. Follow

the flow (or scout early)!

Waterloo Falls does look tempting; might be

sweet! might pitch and piton :-( I'd guess 30',

but a ledge 10' down looks hard to clear. Hit n

bounce or try to clear it an risk pitching . .

.hmm.

. ..No-shuttle option: paddle to big trib falls

and hike back out. Start river right, then right

up the slides, then river left trail, ferry back to

the stairs at Waterloo Falls.

Today's level just over 0 at lower bridge, right

at 1 on upper.

Best gauge at Waterloo Falls Rd bridge on

downstream side. Lower gauge only goes to

1.

Thanks for the beta, Scott!
