Way back in May 98 or so, I and 2 others floated the river in similar high flow. We were in a 10 or 12' self bailer and the 3 of us were all experienced paddlers. It's really no problem with the right equipment and experienced rafters who're paying attention. I seem to remember having to duck under the Broadway Bridge. The trip took 45 minutes from Barber Park to Ann Morrison instead of the usual 2 hours.
Great pics Sawtooth.
