Devils Creek Run-out

Put in at Susitna Bridge

I just read the article in the Men's

Journal on this run. Though it is a nice

entertaining article, I'd reccomend Andy

Embeck's 'Fast and Cold' as a more

accurate story. The 'Men's Journal'

indicated they ran a full day of wild

whitewater before reaching Devil's

Creek Rapid to start the second day.

This clearly must be a misprint as

Devil's Creek is the first rapid in Devil's

Canyon. With at most 7 rapids in all,it

is not possible for several rapids each

day on a two day trip.
