Description

Log Jam Pool is a mandatory portage due to a significant logjam blocking the entire river channel, rendering the rapid unrunnable. Paddlers must carefully exit their boats upstream and carry around the obstruction, being mindful of slippery rocks, uneven terrain, and potential strainer hazards in the surrounding vegetation.
