19 - 4/23/2010 - SF Snoqualmie

My next door neighbor and I decided to do a quick run on the SF Snoqualmie after work. We had a reasonable flow and it was a nice day.

Some of the ill-placed logs that were creating a deadly hazard near the put-in have been removed, but there are still hazards downstream. The first half of this run has changed a lot over the past 11 years, but the second half is pretty stable.

There was one tree in particular that is troublesome. It is at the beginning of the canyon, and it is just above 80% of the river, right where the main current is. It's critical that boats go left of this. A swim here would be a big problem, as the tree has lots of dagger-like branches sticking out.
