	The pucker factor through the big three was pretty intense. Then I came around the bend and saw what was waiting at Oh Shit and, well, thought I was going to shit myself. Total scramble mode to get up against the bank on river left to avoid the aircraft carrier eating hole (full size trees and enormous root balls recirculating like toothpicks). Then came the big hole at the bottom of Honey Creek. Got to the canyon and thought it was all good from there until I saw the moster that is The Sieve...this hole would only eat a battleship. 40 minutes after putting on, I was dealing with taking out up in the trees at O&W. It was a total adrenaline dump! Alls well that ends well...right?
