Side Chute

Side Chute looks nothing like it did before the 2022 floods, however the lines are still the same. At high water levels, the lines down this rapid get easier. 

Keep left from the top and follow the deepest flow down the left bank. The old "sneak line" is still an option, however it is hard to find from the top as there is no distinct channel leading to it.
