Th line on the left is only one I have been able to scout from shore.

All the right hand ones would have to be scouted from below, by ferrying over to an island getting out and looking.

If I'm not mistaking, it's full of islands and there are many lines running between them. Are they scout able? If not, could someone tell me where the easier lines are? To the left?

Last I heard it is at a good level now.

I will get out ans scout it next week.

Last year it was at a good level well in to june.

This year the water was the highest I have ever seen it.

Hi.

I might be wrong, but it's a spring run, too low now. When in, from Class II to Class IV creek runs depending on line!

Just wondering if it's runnable now. I've never done it, but it looks like a nice spot to practice. If it's runnable, what Class are we looking at?
