Mettowee River seive


Description: The second drop at minimum flow since it changed this spring. The vertical slab in the center of the drop has a slot about 5' long, 2 1/2' wide, and 8' deep just to the river left of it that drops out of sight into the rock pile. It's dry at this level. The smaller horizontal slab in the right side of the drop has about 90% of the flow going under it at this level. Both of these hazards are pretty well hidden at normal paddling levels. Pretty scary stuff. I won't even be sneaking this drop anymore!
