SBMF Day 1

The South Branch of the Middle Feather has got a ton of exposure as of late. I would say its a great waterfall run but having just finished Dinkey Waterfalls the SB is like OBJ of California. Back 2 back 20's, followed up double 15's. A portage, more slides and boofs. It feels like you are on the edge of world here. More waterfalls and portage around 100 plus waterfall, and end the run with a 45 footer waterfall to slide. Then camp on a island of the edge of world. Next day the lower SB. This section is seldom run and contains sweet rapids and more boofs.. Stay tuned for day 2 to Middle Feather.
