Metolius, "Shelf Alley with a Median", move into left channel at Toilet Bowl, 1340 cfs, July 2024

Metolius River, Oregon. Camp Sherman to Lower Bridge
"Shelf Alley with a Median" is not an official name. It's a fun mix of turns, little drops, shallows and those distinct shelf channels with their mesmerizing colors and hydraulics. This part extends over 7 to 8 minutes; the first 6 or so minutes of footage have been compacted into 2 minutes. This clip ends about 4 minutes above Wizard Falls. What's so unique is that there are two channels running parallel, mostly separated by a "Median" with little crossover.
