Pretty High Water

Well, the water was in the grass at our launch point at MP 7. Usually it's a seal launch down a foot or two at this point. It was pretty clean running left in the rapid above the Mt. Norway Bridge, but the holes on our right were enormous. Things were pretty washed out on the way down to Cougar Creek. Here again, the run was on the left.
Down at the Rock Island, the boily eddy on the right made it a little squirrely getting back to the left for the drop past the ledge hole.
But one of the real fun parts was the wave at MP 1. My Remix fit in it really well, then Curt in his Mamba got a great ride. Both of us were humbled to see Ann shred it with her borrowed Rocker.
The WASW1 gauge was reading about 9.1 feet.
