Notes from our March 29 Piedra trip
1) There is plenty of snowpack for the next couple of months.
2) Its scenic.
3) Downed trees, lots of them- 2 mandatory portages.
4) The Second Mudslide/Eye of the Needle rapid is pretty clean, but the landslide is very active and that could change. Russ runs a good line:

5) The downed bridge in no big deal. If you floated into it, it would be bad, but that's pretty hard to do unless you are blind.
Flows: We had about 1400 on the gauge, which translates into about 200 at the put-in and 1000 at the take-out early season.
