I paddled Bailey after work on Thursday 5/18 with my friend Corey. I think the flow was somewhere between 600 and 650 cfs.
In the eddie below the first drop of Four Falls there is a HUGE log floating around. When I scouted the drop the log was in the landing zone. If you plan to run this drop I would suggest a scout.
In addition there is a new submerged river wide log about 1/4 mile above Deer Creek rapid. It was visible to us only because of a few branches sticking up out of the water. Corey paddled over the log on the river right side without incident. At lower flows this log will definitely be a problem. It needs to be removed.
Given limited daylight and the fact there were only two of us we could not do anything about either log.
Be safe! |
