Caddo

Paddled halfway from caddo gap to Glenwood at 5.7 ft (~150cfs). Boney and hard to navigate but there was passage for canoes. Day two was ~4miles to Glenwood then an additional 19 miles to Amity recreation area on degray headwaters. 500-600cfs (6.7ft). Avg speed of 3-4mph and peaks of 8mph. Swift water almost all the way down. Drops were frequent, and many wave trains were class 2-2+. At ~15 miles past Glenwood the river drops slight right. Middle channel is a class 3 hole with a comparable wave train immediately after. Passage on either side of the hole is minimal but it is safe to run (smiley face hole). However, canoes without airbags won't make the run no matter how well you hit the line (at this level). I think someone more seasoned than I should re rate this stretch at these levels. Good WW fun for beginners to intermediate paddlers but it can be difficult to recover in some of the channels.
