Trip report URL:

Comments: We combined this with Upper Cascade and completed both in exactly 10hrs with no shuttle. However, keep in mind that we are both fast and efficient and barely stopped all day besides taking many pictures in Cascade. Some anchors were in place, others were moved or ghosted to rappel in the flow. We did skip 2 minor nuisance raps. Note that R2 could potentially have rope catch issues but we had none. A couple drops were overestimated on length, depending on what anchor point is used. Earlier season (than October) is recommended for higher flows. Oh, we also took a short cut across to the top entry that worked well. We did R1 but it isn't that great.
