Grade: 3
Flow: Low to high after some rain.
Incidents: none
Key Learning: More advanced guiding on some technical grade 3
3 days on the Grey getting back in to the swing of rafting again after our hols. started off realy boney so we learnt how to use rocks to pivot off, slow us down. keep things simple etc. On the last day in the morning we got taught how to set up Z-drags and Pig rigs (mechanical advantage). Rain had fallen that night so the flow was a bit high so the rapids were bigger. So had some good variation of flows over the trip and was a good re-cap over-all.
