(RM) Double Drop
Report
| Account | Milt Aitken runs welcome center. The first major rapid on North Chick. This is the second or third rapid after Welcome Center. Mystory Falls gets its name from the almost guaranteed mystery move you will do at the bottom of the falls. Well, that is if you aren't paddling a 14 foot Caption like Steve Frazier. Milt Aitken runs Baby Sweets. Chris Gorman running 8 Ball, the first Class III rapid on North Chick. Jim Strickland doing a nice boof at Mystery Falls. Chris Gorman running Cyclops. The rapid gets its name from the hidden peton rock, smack-dab in the middle of the hole just to the right of Chris. Peter Horne running 8 Ball, the first class III rapid on North Chic Mike Ferrell running the far right line on Cyclopse. Tarp George running El Roberto. Tarp George running Mystery Falls. This would be a much nicer shot if Sutton would just put his arms down... it would smell nicer too. Mike Ferrell running Triple Drop. "V" Ledge has a very powerful hole on river right. The object is not to go there! Will does a nice job avoiding the hole and making "V" Ledge look easy. Truth Or Concequences is one of the few rapids on North Chic that has serious penalty points. Just over Tarps right shoulder is the worst seive you will see on North Chic. Finding the paddlers gage is a little tricky. First enter Bowater Recreation area and drive until you take the hair pin left turn. After the hair pin, there will be a parking area just down the road on your right. Park there and walk down to the river. Walk upstream on the trail about 30 to 50 yards. Watch for a tree with an orange arrow painted on it. The arrow points the way to a short path that leads to a large flat rock by the river. Stand on the rock and look down. You will find the gage below your feet in a calm eddy. Peter Horne running the last drop of Double Drop. Behind him you'll see the first drop. |
