Still has some push to it. It will suprise you. If you think 5 strokes will get you into that eddy it will prolly take 8.

I would reccomend a guide who knows lines.

Watch out for Clamshell in lower railroad. A severe undercut about 50 feet off the river left bank.

It is pretty easy when you know it but some especially double z can be challenging to the first timer and table rock will be in play as a serious undercut.

Also lower Kenney gets bigger as it gets lower.

Karma shuttles have been getting harder to come by this year too with the higher gas prices it has been pretty empty on the new especially on weekdays.

See if you can find some buddies who know the lines.
