Log in to add a reportThe crux move of the Garden- Mcavoy dropping in.
Ryan Mcavoy and I did another full descent in November of 2018. We had to portage once for wood though.
Pat Keller and Ryan Macavoy just did another descent of this no problems. Happened on May 19, 2018 as I believe.
I think this is about 1500 cfs.
Raging whitewater, ~1000cfs at hazelwood guage
If anyone has pictures of this with water or any information on it please tell me.
I think he did it about a dozen times, and I'm pretty sure that once you start moving, you can't get out to portage. Oh yeah, he ran it in an inflatable ducky too....
Who is this Chip Collins and how in the world did he survive? Where did he start and take out? Any rapids walked etc.
This gives you an idea of the average size of a drop in the steepest section of the Garden of the Gods. Its a fun place to go hiking/canyoneering.
