I posted a few pictures of Howell is the gallery. This is a feature that comes in on the Missouri River in St. Louis. The wave / hole is created by a low water bridge, but it is super sweet. There are only about 10 kayakers in the state who will boat it, unfortunately.  The spot is kind of dangerous though. I have seen full size oak trees rumble down the river. You know, 3' across, 60' long with a big ole rootball. Keep yer eyes peeled! Hope the water and weather is good in the PNW. -Gordon great, the river is leveling off right under 200k! http://waterdata.usgs.gov/mo/nwis/uv?06935965 - http://waterdata.usgs.gov/mo/nwis/uv?06935965 ------------- Kayak Academy Whitewater Instructor |
