Low Flow Middle Middle - Packrafting WA - 900cfs - Class II-III

Forgot to edit and upload this trip from the Middle Middle last fall. My brother and a buddy and I went down and linked up with some of the PNW's finest packrafters for a run on the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River located just outside of North Bend. Rain was in the forecast and the river was predicted to spike up to almost 2000cfs that day but unfortunately the rain never came and the river rested at just over 900cfs. At usual flows this run rates III-IV but at these flows the rapids were all II-II+ with the exception of House Rock and maybe one or two others you could call class III. We put in at the bridge and enjoyed a few miles of easy class I-II in a beautiful foggy mountain forest before we hit the alternate put in for the whitewater run. After this we boogied down a bunch of fun little boulder gardens and found plenty of great surf waves along the way. A-Frame Rapid was pretty chill, it hardly seemed to stand out over the other rapids we had hit so far. Sesame Street and Cookie Monster were super chill, the hole was basically non existent and the rapid was a fun and easy jaunt. The rapid before House Rocks had a fun pourover in the middle but just a few waves otherwise. House Rocks was the only legitimate class III rapid at these flows, it had some more channelized waves and a few smaller holes but there were good breaks between each sections and a few spots to play around. Below House we meandered our way through several boulder gardens until we reached the powerline takeout on river left. This was a really fun run, and it was great to link up with so many other packrafters, I think we had seven total. This run was recorded on 11-9-2024 and there were no significant wood hazards at the time of the float but due to the everchanging nature of the river do not use this video for any reference to wood hazards or current conditions.
