probably won't come up again this year, but just in case..
Bottom (blind) part of s-turn rapid. It fell from the cliff above into the the chute that is run along the left wall. The rapid goes fine on the far right.

guess i should say it's blocking the channel that is run along the left wall, so don't go in there. Go far Right

Previous tree is still there but now that it's been limbed you can go under it.

But... there is a new SKETCHY tree a few yards downstream in the same chute. It is not appearant until you are committed to the drop.

Next high water will probably wash it out, but until then
I would suggest don't go into the left chute. Go right around the island. And be careful over there as well.. as that's where most of the wood usually ends up.
