Description

I recently did another scrapey very low run and there was a creekwide strainer 2 feet above the current water level. After you do the big slide, there is a couple more drops, and then you will see a giant pile of logs on river right. Right after that is the strainer. You can see the giant pile of logs from far away and so portaging shouldn't be a problem. The level was so low we went under it.
