That was a fun run. But the next trip was much more eventful!

That shuttle has always held me back. Did you see a small dam toward the end? Heard there was one for supplying water to the town below the powerhouse during its construction.

It's a weir just before the 3rd (unscoutable) gorge. You can hike up to the weir depending on undergrowth. Paddle across the lake and hike up the creekbed. THere is a logging road on your left, (river right) that leads to a gap in the mountain few dozen feet above the creekbed. There's an aqueduct over the creek that comes from the weir. When you hike through the gap, you'll only be a few feet above the creek level on the other side.
