Hey Center, I couldn't find any video but here's a pic someone sent me a while back. This is only of the first drop and there's about 10 more that are quite a bit bigger. Still wanna run it???

This what you're looking for? :wink:

This was during the first known descent. Video has water spots on the lens due to the rain that fell the entire trip. Others have some footage from follow-up runs which is clearer. Not sure if they are on the net.

Barberries make me swim. I hadn't seen that in a couple of years and remembered one of the things I didn't like about the creek was the relative abscence of eddies. Not to say there weren't eddies, just not as many as I would have liked. Also I can say with absolute experience you need to be in excellent physical condition for this creek because if you decide to portage anything it requires extreme physical exertion. I know - I portaged.
