Comments: With 95F on the NOAA forecast, the air and water was warm enough to be pleasant without raincoats. The first-descent related routefinding added at least three hours to our descent time, so future groups can expect to run this much faster. We waited for the shade on the hike out, so the exit wasn’t too hot.

We forgot to take a picture of the flow at the road, sorry. Here's what it looked like at the drop-in.
