Who ran lower Poudre Falls yesterday?

We just happened to be hiking up the trail when we saw a couple of guys gearing up to run the falls. We stuck around and my friend got some really cool video footage of your run. Let me know your contact info and we'll get you the video. Nice run, by the way! We couldn't see how far up you started. Where did you put in?

Could you post it on this site?
I'm sure a lot of us would like to see it.
Thanks

'lower' poudre falls??

Most of the time, people put in below Poudre Falls to run laps on the bottom half of Spencer Heights. Putting in on Cyclotron ('lower' poudre falls??). I wasn't up there yesterday but that would be my bet.

Thats going to be my bet too, unless there were some really unexpierenced boaters that did not know what they were getting into. Anyone hear about that the flight for life and news truck were for? Same day or not?

.... or quite the opposite. The second drop in the falls is burly as hell right now. Lets see the video, if you don't mind.

I'm going to give them a little more time to speak up in case they don't want it on the site. I don't have the video yet, but should be able to post the link by the end of the day.
I think they put in just below that narrow, ugly, wall slamming drop. I don't know what it's called, but its ugly and undercut. I was really impressed. They made it look too easy!

Got it. That's Cyclotron, then entrance into the lower half of Spencer Heights. The ugly wall you refer to is the third drop on Poudre Falls.

Dan/Adro, I think Kim's got some footie of you guys running the entrance of Cyclotron from yesterday.

well now my whistle is wet...

I've heard from my brother's girlfriend's sister's step-dad that he once heard of someone running the falls. Poudre Falls all three drops. Does anyone have evidence of a successful run?
