River Wood Hazards

New wood - Lower Green, it's ugly
Author Last Post

10/26/2024 update. With Photos


600cfs did not move the wood.

Today, hidden at the bottom of the 1st drop below Paradise (the first left hand turn, with the large boulders at the bottom) we found a large tree wedged all the way across the very bottom of the drop's typical left side route. It spanned all of the boulders


The tree is not very visible until you start to commit to the final steep part of the drop, and if I hadn't had my alert level up because it was missing from where it was last Saturday, the scramble to river right would have been much more frantic.


We ran the far right, and right of the large boulder at the bottom. There is some long-standing wood in the right side pool.


If this doesn't move at higher water, it will be scary on the left.
