Escalante- Spring 08


It has been an epic Escalante season. The levels have not dipped below medium for a month, being higher most of the time than the peak of a normal year. I'm not sure how much longer it will last but it could go for a week or two more (still running high as of 5/18). All photos here are from medium to high levels.

Uh- where's the fin?

Waterslide is the most consequential drop on the run. The low water right line does not go if the level is above medium-high. At these levels, you have to boof down the center, being careful not to get pushed into the seived-out left channel. Kevin runs a good line at Waterslide at high water.

Rib ripper- great high water boof.


Neat view of Corkscrew.
