Notesboated with Dale, stacy and ru-tang. the run was fun, but probably wouldnt do it in my little sinker boat again as it kept me pretty busy and gripped...my bigger cut shred or bigfoot would have been more appropriate tool for the job. Had most fun trying mysteries at a rock ledge just upstream from the splitrock takeout. rock ledge and eddy behind it, are in the middle of the river. a touch lower water may be better so handpaddles could be used and still stay in the eddy. id say this takeout spot has a lot of potential. rutang had a name for it..but i forget what he said. id love to come back and park and play at it. wonder if there is camping nearby..

NotesWhile I consider myself a novice Squirtist, I know the Sky fairly well and therefore know what flows to look for. Today I found a sweet flow for downriver squirting on the Sky. I put in @ the Confluence and found plenty of deep channels- No trouble avoiding rocks, even through the more shallow, gravel bar sections. Boulder Drop was great, and a more experienced squirtist would find plenty of good squirt play throughout the whole rapid. Unfortunately my boat was taking on a lot of water, so the performance of my craft was quite sluggish, causing my to curtail my ambitions considerably. Regardless, just paddling down through all the rapids satisfied my curiousity that this run does in fact host many great opportunities for someone with the skills to tap into them. Hopefully after a few more runs (Im gussing that 2000-4000 would be an ideal flow for me personally)Ill be able to clue in to some of these spots.
