Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

As quoted from Leland on BoaterTalk 6/18/01. I've run it twice - once at 2.2 and once at 2.0. It's ranging between the two right now, and it hasn't been below 1.8 since mid May. In fact, it has spent little time low enough to run (for mortals). At 2.2 it was pretty scary. At 2.0 I would say it is comparable in diffuculty to the Green at 100%. I wouldn't go above about 2.3, and then only with a strong group. Supposedly it's fun all the way down to 1.6. The run I did at 2.0 might have been one of the most fun runs I've ever done.
