Union Chutes 3-28-07

The great thing about Union Chutes is how the features change as the water level changes. It was running 1050 cfs which is the highest I have ever seen it, and it was completely different than at 900. We spent some time surfing the wave at the 4th drop, where I have never seen a wave before. The wave was a bit flushy but had a nice shoulder for blunts. The rumor was the the U-hole was washed out, but we checked it out anyway. It was actually super fun. Much faster and more powerful than at low water- like riding in a washing machine but without the quarters. Big loops too if you didn't care about sticking them in the hole. Hopefully it keeps running all spring. Sorry, no pictures.
