Whitewater Forum : Minimum Green Gorge Levels Author: mokelumnekid

Posted: 02 Mar 2016 at 8:15pm

I'm going with Nat's comments...1500+ but I am on record as not liking mank and the time I had a problem in there it was at 1300 and it wasn't even on a named rapid, because of getting high centered and then not having enough water to roll. Mercury at those levels is pretty runnable staying left of center, maybe 30 feet off the left bank tho if it gets low there are some "tip in" little holes that don't have enough water to really push your through if you drop into them. But you will def need to go with an experienced team a sit can be hard to see what's coming first time. Someone who is very experienced recently told me that for them 1000 is their the absolute cut off. Def warm up on Headworks if you have the time. And take a spare paddle.

Pipeline hasn?t come up yet, so I?m going to point out that it also cleans up quite a bit with more water (up to 3300, the highest I?ve seen). The run out makes it a lower consequence rapid, but it comes before mercury and could throw off your game before the crux. At 3k the left line is pretty much a tongue followed by some squirrely water. There?s a bit of a wave/hole that seems to get bigger as you drop through the 2s and teens, but it?s not a bad ride around 2k. The left looked frightening when I saw it from a packraft at ~600. Although I am a follower of the left-hand path in this rapid, I imagine the right line still goes at most levels, but you?ve gotta paddle like you mean it! ?And then you come into the zone of funny water with an odd angle. At least- that?s the best-case scenario assuming you haven?t gotten pushed off your line by the current or a FU rock.   

There is nothing new I can add to the discussion on mercury. Keep left, eyes open, be ready to brace. 1800-2200 is my recommendation.

The pilchuck is in my backyard. Didn't know you were in snoho currently jP. If you guys run the pilchuck, include this chump. I haven't ever been on it and I haven't been on a river since last spring/summer I think. I'm parked next to the Wenatchee right now sippin on some coffee. Got me thinking about boating, hence I'm back on the PP.
