Video: Quarter Mile on the Nolichucky River before and after Hurricane Helene

New video by PaulClark: The Nolicucky River was dramatically altered after Hurricane Helene.

Here is a side-by-side comparison of the rapid Quarter Mile, roughly a year apart. (The CFS level may not be completely accurate.)

The entrance rocks have been removed, making it more straightforward.
Where the second Drop was, is now a big (potentially recirculating hole).

The hole below Second Drop is now a ledge of sharp rock, with the route going river-left. You definitely don't want to swim here...
