You took out at that bridge. Was there a cow pasture you had to climb up to get to the road? I swear there was a big boulder-choked rapid a mile or two above our takeout, and we had to portage it because the run was too tight. The portage on the left was annoying. Could high flows have cleaned up the rapid (I did run this 10 years ago)?
@bur-vista10 ай бұрын
There was a small pasture between the bridge and the road. You could have gone further down? Rivers in Ecuador are constantly changing. Revueltos Gringos on the Quijos changed twice since last November.
