I had just finished the class II-III section above it on the East Fork. We started at 1150 cfs on the LRC. When he made his run the level was 2450 cfs. Pumping! Our 13 mile run took 3 1/2 hours and 30 minutes thru brush to avoid accidently going over those falls.
His run was great!

The shot was cropped, for some reason.

There's an uncropped of the same picture in the same album showing the second drop & the rest of the falls. Not sure why it was cropped out... The original shot is much better IMO.

I also went with pleasure through a couple more albums from the same guy... Mostly kayak but a couple of C1 there and more nice drop shots:

Also this other one guy definitely has skills heading to play in that hole in the middle of the run... (look at the next couple of pictures)

Yes; I believe, it is.
Check out the next few photos for a better view.
That hole is small and easy, for the hole-punching Fink.
