Trip Report

Before you put in, scout the crux rapid from the highway bridge. I would call it solid Class 5, not 4-5, but it has been a while since I was there. Also scout the final waterfall just downstream of the final (State St?) bridge before putting in. You may have to climb up on a wall to see it. It's a double-boof to the right. Once you put in, there's not much point in trying to stop. I remember running an enormous (30-50 feet?) slide without scouting, because stopping was impossible. Fortunately, it was wide and clean. A great, if brief, run!
