Spokane

Lower, poo plant to kayaker take out

Drew, Meagan, Gordon

Very boney, but doable. Log in between the two rocks in the B&P
Excellent surfing between the B&P and the toenail, which we portaged. Drew and I were going to run it but we had no throw bag.

Lower Spokane River

August 16, 2009
Poo Plant to the Kayaker Take-out

1300 CFS

Jillian, Gordon, Curtis, & Drew

Jill's first time through the B&P!! Scary, but not too bad at this level. We portaged the D's T again. Jillian swam through a rocky bit just below the Toenail. Must have hit a rock or something. But didn't get too beat up :).

Gordon and Drew went back for a second run while Jill went home to make dinner.

Lower Spokane

1100 CFS
Poo Plant to Kayaker Take-out
Drew, Gordon and Curtis

The B&P is quite navigable at this level. Jillian ran shuttle and was jealous that she didn't paddle. The Toenail is not currently navigable (as you can clearly see below) unless you are incredibly talented or incredibly stupid, so we portaged there.





Upper Lower Spokane River

Water Street to TJ Meenach

1100 CFS
Drew, Gordon, & Jillian

A nice morning run. Clouded up when we were out there. The river is very shallow, but the lower is still very runnable. Afterwards we scouted the B&P and DT just for fun : ).

Jillian, Drew, Megan, Curtis, and Sherri

A very rocky run, more like an obstacle course that kayaking, really. But very fun! Curtis surfed everything. Jillian got stuck backwards in S-Turn twice due to rocks. Good times.
