The End to Triplet Rapid   

Map

Powell loved names that involved the underworld. Hell's Half Mile, Lucifer, Satan's Gut, etc. Most aren't as bad as they sound. Some, on the other hand, are. Worth noting that Powell portaged most of them. This one he gave the relatively mild name of Triplet.

Didn't even notice Greg was doing that until I got back. Now guess, just try to guess who flipped and ended up swimming through Triplet moments after this photo was taken?

The water doesn't mix right off the bat. The Green River is also about 10-15 degrees cooler, which is very odd when you stand in the middle. Which of course we did.
