Had a nice day on the river, level was at 58 cms with a group of 6 paddlers.
The hole in the canyon was quite manageable compared to a few weeks ago but the old rule still applied: don't look at the hole, look where you want to go...

River level is below 60 m^3/s--that's a bit low for the Canyon section, no?

It's still got enough water to be interesting

It's a class 3 technical run, you should have no problem.
Bring a big boat since it's your first trip.
