Saint Francis 2/27/2011


This last weekend started with a text to paddle Caine pond on Friday night. It is a solid class IV creek, and looks burly. After meeting up Saturday morning with Tracey, Eric, and mike, we received a call that the creek was too low for the run, so instead we headed to the saint for a nice high water run. As we rolled into the parking lot, the river was just at D bridge. We were able to get in two big high water runs on Saturday, and then I meet up with mike again on Sunday for some nice play runs. Tracey and Eric camped so we meet them at D for the first run. The river was about 25 inches. We bombed the first run, and by the HOD (Heat of day) the D bridge parking lots was packed and the river was running at about 21inches. Good level with lots of people, made for great day on the river.  Here is a little video I made of the second run. Most of the footage is from double drop. Enjoy.
