44 - 7/4/09 - Middle Middle

This was my 100th IK run on the Middle Middle, though oddly enough it was only my 99th run of House Rocks. On my first run of the Middle Middle, the person who led me down wanted to scout the rapid. The scout was tiring and mostly useless. When I started down to my boat to run the rapid, I slipped on a wet log, fell, and bruised some ribs (I ended up sleeping on my couch for 5 weeks to relieve the pressure on my ribs). We ended up portaging House Rocks and then I kayaked the rest of the run.

This was a much less eventful run. We had 6 IKs, including a first time solo IKer, and the flow was around 1000 cfs. We put in at First Island Drop.
