It's always good to see stuff rom a place I have been to before and hope to visit again...I have not been to Hirsch but last year (2007) Pat nearly succeeded in sending us down Rockstar Canyon in high water levels, after giving us the wrong km figures for gets in on WIlliams! We realised fairly quickly after his description of the Upper run being easy and a little harder towards the end, when we came around a corner after a few hundred metres from the put in and had to check out some mad looking slide / drop thing....was n't long before3 the decision was made to walk back out!! Turning to gear bags...obvioulsy we will be taking off river, evening 'dancing' wear for the long cold nights ni the Canyon so my thinking is that that should see us til we get dropped back to Flagstaff, or the OUtfitter who is picking us up could have our gear bags for us when we meet at Diamond Creek...I will confirm the story... See you soon big man...I will have my mobile phone so you can contact me when you get to Phoenix ./ Flagstaff etc... Good work on the blog Jason…I had checked it out before.

Also check out my blog folks I have some pics of Hirsch Creek canyon in Kitimat and Rockstar canyon on Williams Creek.
