Lots of tree's ready to move care needed.

You see it in time enough to get around it on the left -certainly in low or medium water - but it could come up on you pretty quickly in higher water.

There is a new land bridge built at the mill on river left. There is a slot approx 2 metres x 1 metere under this land bridge. At high/medium levels it is not visable so exercise great caution if paddling there.Mickie Mon, 31 Oct 2011 18:13:47 GMT http://www.irishwhitewater.com/riveralerts/#366 http://www.irishwhitewater.com/riveralerts/#364 Hi All,Ran the Avonbeg river yesterday 24/10/2011 and the is a large tree blocking Stanley falls. It is not easy to see it from upstream. Attempt were made to remove the tree but it held fast.  There is no clean line through the rapid so a portage is necessary.Niall   Mon, 24 Oct 2011 06:53:41 GMT http://www.irishwhitewater.com/riveralerts/#364 http://www.irishwhitewater.com/riveralerts/#365 Hi All,Ran the Avonbeg river yesterday 24/10/2011 and the is a large tree blocking Stanley falls.

It looks like someone has had a go at cutting it but a big section remains, not a massive issue at low & medium levels but at high levels it will definately be an issue. Looks very well lodged and will take a huge volume of water to shift. Sun, 23 Oct 2011 21:07:56 GMT http://www.irishwhitewater.com/riveralerts/#363
