Log in to add a report4-4.5 on the bridge - Eric Nathanson

Had a great high water paddle at a little over four on the gauge. All the drops were clear of wood in the mainlines, though a few logs pinned on the sides where they could cause problems for someone off line.
One of our group learned the hard way not to go too far right on Magic Carpet.
I've included a map of the hiking trails for folks to reference with the drops marked in orange. Fastest way out in the need of a walk out is to head back towards the ecology center.

Ran it at 1.8' at the gauge at the put in on 10/17/11. This is almost as low as you want to run it. Great day on the river for my first tie on it. Parked at the abandoned home, downstream of the bridge on river right, which is OK to do.
