Run:  Cache la Poudre (Mishawaka Inn to Bridges take-out)

Flow:  ~1100 cfs (3.5′ ?)

Class:  III, IV

Temperature:  ? (cloudy, cold, and windy)

Buddies:  Chadwick Shoults, Craig Foley

Description:  A fun run through Lower Mish, Poudre Park, and Bridges.  Nothing major to report.  Lower Mish was good, as was Poudre Park.  Cardiac Corner was no problem, and Pineview was fun.  Had a little slip-up at the start of Pineview and had to roll right away, but managed to recover quickly and make it down the rest of it cleanly.  Chadwick put it best at the end of the run: “It’s hard to have a bad day on the Poudre.”

Carnage:  None
