An incident last weekend involving a strainer in the easier runout blow Pete Morgans has brought to light the existance of a dagerous strainer on the Cheat Canyon Section roughly 3/4 of a mile below the last major rapid. Here is a link to a description of the incident posted on the MCC’s Pattle Prattle. In the linked thread is a picture of the strainer as well as a desciption of both the incident and the location of the strainer.
Be safe out there. The Cheat is a great run so enjoy but watch out for hidden problems like this one.
