Hog's Back Suturday? Really!

Alright this is getting old very fast but... Level staying safe and low like in the last two weeks (doesn't look to change). Temperature cooperating(0 Celsius plus or minus a few degrees) and not being alone, e.i. at least safety boat in the water and ropes, I would like to do Hog's Back Falls Saturday morning at around 10AM.

Any serious takers please post to me directly. Even though the water is low right now this is not at all a beginner run. The main waterfall is about 12-15 feet, followed by two holes, one easy to avaoid the other one to punch through, followed by a nice pool at the bottom.

One big ick is that the access is barred at this level so you have to find a creative way to get down to the water's edge to start your run. Having a friend around to warn you of unwanted attention is a plus and will keep your wallet from being lightenned...

Ideally someone who has done this before to guide us (me) would be great but I think I've witnessed enough boaters go down to know what to do.

Anyways if you are interested please post to me directly (PM me)as I don't want to this to degenerate into something silly...

Thanks,

Will post pics if we do go...
