* 2024-Jan-18 to 2024-Jan-19 / 2 days / Packrafting / NOBO / GPT 74P Rio Yelcho / madnomad
The river had a great flow of 5 to 10 km/h usually. We scouted the first Rapid {74P} [10.9+0.2/55], where you can easily portage but in the end we paddled it on the far right side, as it was suggested in the previous comments and it was fine. The next rapids were even easier, so I would say this river is a good introduction for beginners. That doesn't mean it's totally calm but it's definitely not wild. The scenery is amazing and there are lots of wonderful spots to wildcamp! We chose the little, lush green island at Camp {74P} [33.1/10]. It seems we reached Chaiten during low tide and we struggled a bit to find a way to the ocean, as big parts of land were uncovered. We finally walked and dragged the packraft through the canals that were formed and we reached the deep water after a little detour.
