As of early this afternoon there is very little wood and no new wood. The river-wide downed tree that had a raft wrapped last year hasn't moved, but it is still easily runnable far left. From there you don't have any wood in play until you get to the cass IV rapid below the falls. There is one log at the very top of the rapid about 5ft off the water, super easy to go under it. Those are the only 2 places where we noticed any wood. We were at 3.9ft on the stick gauge, barely any water pouring over the rock, and by my estimation no more than 1500 cfs. If you have any other questions i will gladly try to answer them

The gate to the falls and campground was open this afternoon. We Saw a black pick-up driving in, as we passed by.

Hi Jfer202, could you please update this information on the River hazards for each of the river pages? Be sure to erase alerts that no longer are relevant and add what you know.

Thanks for your beta.
The line will become apparent
