Little Stony Creek (New R. trib.)

Johannes, a German grad student at nearby Virginia Tech, prepares to launch about 1/3 of the way down the Autobahn rapid. The log just above his head prevented us from running the top third of the rapid. The slot on river left feeds into the visible undercut and is marginally runnable. This is roughly 1-1/4 miles above the USFS parking lot.
Looking downstream at the log that prevented us from running the upper reaches of the Autobahn, a rapid about 60 yards long with few opportunities to slow down.
Johaness takes a break from hiking at the bottom of the Autobahn.
