we made the mistake of putting on Little Mill rather than Mill. We were shocked to see a gauge on an old bridge just downsteam of Mill Road. Could it be for strip mine water quality or from Jasper locals from days gone by?
Alf on Little Mill. Small. Low water.
Phil out of his boat
there was a lot of this and worse
log triple shot
some travertine
Alf goes as low as possible. Steve's RPM was made for this stuff.
the second gauge of the day. Just upstream of the confluence.
Now we are on Mill Creek. Better volume though probably low side of medium.
nice bluffs
one of the biggest two rapids. I just missed getting Steve's boof "on film".
Phil pursues an alternate approach.
Phil tries to scout standing up in his boat and instead verifies his drysuits waterproofing.
this rapid was almost challenging. the line was RR to RL. At higher water this might get interesting.
