Kayaking the Upper Middle Fork Eel River

Kayaking the first successful descent of the Upper Middle Fork Eel River, Northern California. John Warner, Orion Meredith, Silent Ed and Dan Menten paddling an overlooked classic! Music by Hillstomp, a killer live band from Portland, song: Goin' Down South, album: One Word

Flows were 1500 at put-in and dropping very slightly...turned out to be an excellent flow for the stretch downstream of Pothole Crossing..coulda used more flow in the top section, although the bottom half is where the goods wait. Know of anyone who has paddled this since the first d back in 2010?

Coal Mine Falls is on the lower Middle Fork Run from Black Butte to Dos Rios. This is shot on a 25 mile stretch above the Black Butte River.
