Gauge Reading67 cfs at Escanaba, E.Br.-Section 20 Bridge to O'Neal Creek confluence

Ran this run 2 weeks ago at around 240 cfs. At current levels of ~70cfs, several features appear to have created potentially dangerous hydraulics not seen at levels of ~30 cfs or ~240 cfs previously paddled. Scouting would be advisable for some of the middle drops, and portaging would be wise if you arent comfortable with the strong possibility of rolling in violent water.
