We had a couple of fun runs on this stretch in hardshells and packrafts. We got to see a Moose along shore one day. The wave at Francois was big! It was easy to miss on the right for tentative paddlers, but most of the group took it head on (it did flip one the hardshells). Howard's was the highlight. Everyone had a blast. One hardsheller flipped and ended up upside down on the eddy on the left at the bottom. It's rocky and shallow but she made it out unscathed.
