Upper pool #4 back channel

On Wednesday I went through 2nd cut all the way up to the dam. This was my first time through so I went slow the whole way. I don’t recall seeing many places with depths less than about 3′ except by the main channel. Saw a guy in a flat bottom tiller fly down through.
I do not know the back channel very well yet. With the current water levels it would not take much to find a place to get hung up if your not familiar with the area.

I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone that has to ask.
(that’s not a slam)

No…not all the way through. The highline area is the problem area. Lower end from 5th cut is fine…..but use caution as always!
