I went down this run as well as section III on labor day weekend at 1.20 on usgs (online) gauge. We ran everything fine until we got to crack in the rock. The right and left cracks were too low to run, so we planned to go down the middle until when I paddled over there there was a large log blocking the way. We had to portage to the left on a rock and get back in but it was difficult because there was no banks so I threw my boat in and then I jumped in the river and climbed back in my inflatable kayak. I would try to get out on the river right though before I resulted to getting out on the left. Lots of scrappy shoals at this level.
