We made it back without swimming! What a wonderful river.
Tyee we scouted, looked big and pushy so, but at 2900 cfs we were able to ran it far left against the left bank. Upper Black Bar we also scouted, and it looked nasty. One raft didn't get far enough right in time and dropped side ways into the hole, jettisoning the oarsman, but fortunately didn't flip. We hugged the far right bank and did ok. Mule Creek Canyon - Coffee Pot wasn't a problem, just maintained momentum. Next time canoe goes before raft. Didn't recognize Telfer at all. Blossom Bar was "interesting". Did an unintentional eddy turn in the middle which caused us to ride up on the pillow on the "VW Rock", but we came out dry. Thank you so much for your advice everyone. We're ready to go back. I hope to have pictures at www.rapids2.myphotoalbum.com by the end of the week. Carol Krueger |
