Settingdown Creek

A friend of mine got pinned on the second drop of the Double Drop rapid on jan. 2, 2007. He flipped on the way down the first drop and got pinned upsidedown on the river right wall at the bottom of the second drop. Luckly, he was only pinned for about three seconds. We couldn't find his paddle, so I stuck my foot in the second drop and felt around for it. I tried to pull it up with my toes, but it shifted and wedged my foot between the paddle and a rock. It took me five minutes to get my foot out and it is still swollen two days later. The paddle was recovered and the video was uploaded to AW yesterday, but I don't know if it is viewable yet. The double drop is harder at a lower level and should be portaged if there is only water in the river right slot.
