I flew over Devils Canyon when i was doing my long cross country for my pilot's license a long time ago - that's some really tough water! Let us know how you make out and good luck!

Never been up that far? What kind of boat you running? It can be a challenge just getting to the "bottom" of it.

I will be up that way screwing around on Saturday as well. Have yet to make it to the canyon. How far above Indian river is it? The river I really want to run is the Chulitna but I won't hijack your thread in asking if anyone else has ran it. I run a black & gray 22' Riddle. maybe we will see you out on the river

Oh man, I wish I could join you in my AK XL as well. Unfortunately, my saturday is already booked I think. What time are you going to get started? Launching from Talkeetna boat launch?

it is about 15 miles or so past Indian. Maybe 5-6 past Portage Creek. It is quite the run to get their. It takes some HP once you get into the wave trains and rapids. On a sunny day the ride up is awesome. Watch the bolder gardens above Mahays first camp. there are two of them

Looks like the trip isnt happening now, the guy that was going up with me on saturday isnt going to make it and i am not going to do a solo run up there, ill probably just play around on the talkeetna river, or the knik who knows.

Sorry man. I really wish I could make it but it is my busy time of the year and work is getting in the way of my boating season.
