Comment: Flow was there but not too pushy. The approach trail and bolts are in good condition. Last mile of the road (high clearance section) was blocked with a cable but the road was in good shape. It was easy to find the entrance following the pink ribbons. There is a lot of creek walking in the first 2 thirds of the descent. R3 could be a jumped from top, or downclimbed and jumped. The virtual gauge of AW for Silver was 22 CFS.

Comment: Really fun canyon with lots of jump spots into deep water. Water is beautiful! Good bit of creek walking for the first two and last quarter of the canyon, but nothing too slippery, challenging, or exhausting. Really enjoyed and would recommend.

Comment: Calculated flow was 40 cfs which was a fun flow. Bolts at R1 and R2 were in good shape. We parked by the bridge going over the N Fork of the Sky because we didn't have a high clearance vehicle. The road passed that had some sections that were not for the feint of heart. All of the bridges/exposed areas along the trail were pretty well protected with handlines.
