After getting back from SSV I called up Paul the Kayaker and we hit the Poudre to do some big water Narrows runs. The Pineview gauge was at ~3.7/8 which is definitely on the higher side of life. I can't remember how high I have run Uppers, but it wasn't even close to this level. Big water boating going on.
On the first rapid Super Collider, it was waaaaaaaaaay bigger down in there than from the road and while I was mostly on line for it it wasn't on my terms and I couldn't get away from the wall to set my angle a little better.
I was a little nervous after that to run Whiteline, but I stomped the entrance boof and set up perfectly for the final boof and I layed it down.
We got to middle narrows and it felt big even though I have run it in a playboat much higher. Don't get me wrong, it was super fun, it just felt big for some reason.
Finally we got to Lower Narrows, but that is another write up
