Description

Beautiful yet unrunable and Only about 40 yards downstream of Raging Angels. Portage on the river right trail. Followed by a few hundred yard hike out to the Rt209 pull out.

 

We crossed the creek at all flows using a rope in a zipline fashion to make sure boaters wouldn't be swept the 6 feet and over the 70 footer.  The first boater with the line crossed high staying close to the wall with an end of a rope. Tied off we setup the zipline angle and it was all good. Tightly belay the last boater across the shallow creek. Its a bit tense of a takeout portage crossing knowing whats just a few feet away. Take your time, don't stumble.
