| River: Virgin River |
| Segment: Lower Gorge--Door #1 |
| Flow: 400 cfs |
| Date: May 2001 |
| Class: slot |
| Paddler: Georg Hartlmaier |
| Description: Georg makes a rare run down Door #1, the far left run at the rockfall near the end of the gorge. Four hours earlier, a scout had shown a log wedged across the slot right where his boat is. The log may still be there, under about a foot or so of water. The river had risen 150 cfs since the scout and may have come up enough in this narrow slot to cover the danger. The hard shells decided to walk this one. |
