Day 4 - River Mile 17.4 Campsite to Big Eddy

Confluence of the Rio Gallina. Nice but also obvious the best is upriver. With the higher flows, dodging rocks were not an issue as is the norm. The fact that I solo run nine Class II/III's with only boat scouting gives some idea of the skill level required. Meandering Rapid and Screaming Left were the most interesting. Focused enough on the 4 named rapids surrounding the takeout that gradually came to believe that it had been passed by. Very upset, I stopped riverside and hiked all of ten yards before seeing the van. Turns out I was 30 yards and a river bend from Big Eddy.
