Here are some photos from a trip last weekend (2/6) on the lower New. We had flows of around 1000 cfs... nice and fluffy.
Dan Menten running the first rapid of the Gorge.
Peter Malkin a.k.a "The Russian" with a stylie boof in the numero uno.
Martin Belden running the top double drop of the second gorge rapid.
The final move in the second rapid... move right! The spray in the background is the surging mass we like to call the Penalty Box, a nasty backed up hole on river left.
Dan boofing the first 6 foot ledge in the third big rapid.
Dan about to go deep into the throat of Crack in the Rock.
Tombstone rapid, with another good drop in the background. This run has a consistently steep gradient for the length of the gorge.
The tombstone pillow dishing out a nice pirouette stern squirt combo.
Looking downstream from below Tombstone. The final half mile of the gorge is some of the best.... enjoy!
Thanks to Ben York for the Photos.
