Watch out for those Eddy Fences!


Description: Scouting Class V Clavey Falls is critical, but you must catch the eddy after the Confluence of the Tuolumne and Clavey River first. At the flows in this picture, that was not a problem, but when both rivers are cranking, there's little precious time to get across the mouth of the Clayvey before the current sweeps you into the Main Tuolumnne's most significant rapid.
