PS, Its the highest its been in a decade...no joke.. the water was about 3 feet from the bridge at the take out... Last week, the rock in the canyon was completely under water and there was a hole there where the rock sits...Some good boaters swam.... No wood to worry about AFAIK but its no class 2-3 as usual. Shes big, burly, pushy and cold! Picture the Rouge Canyon at high water but in a smaller narrower river
Charge right entering the canyon after the lead in.
With the snow/rain... she might get even bigger!
Be safe and have fun! I might be in actually if I can find a boat!
PICS:
To give you a perspective...That rock is now underwater... Gauge says 129cms but in the spring you normally multiply by 1.5 as the gauge is upstream at lac simon almost... There are multiple creeks dropping into the river to add flow to.. (some don't believe it but whatever..) having had a farm on this river for the past 10 years, I can tell you that the water at the bridge has bever been this high before!
50 cms vs 120 cms
120 cms left side of rock
Lead in rapid to the canyon @ 120 cms
