Ran today to Lezat, with 5cms, everything runnable, no portages. One dangerous tree in a gorge, runnable with a somewhat sketchy line.

After the gorge it is possible to take-out on river-right at 46.49553,5.94262 and walk up a track to the road at Lézat. Nothing wrong with the track but the height gain is 150m vertical. You might prefer the class II-III paddle out.

Ran part 1 (only) with 5 m3/s at Morez. A perfectly entertaining level. Strong currents in the drops but not pushy in the pools. The above-grade paddlers in the group did not have to portage anything at this level.

All clear. Remarkably little wood in the water.

Run with 13 m3/s in Morez, super nice, super smooth. this water level is super nice. Be careful to have a look (from the right river bank) before entering the "klamm section". It is forbidden to swim, there are too many trees on and in the water. To be honnest I think the maximum could be very high but you need to know the river!

Very nice run that can be divided in two parts:

- Part 1: wild gorge with 2 difficult rapids (class IV, IV+ or X depending on the level). Those can be carried on the right side. Be careful with the banks on the second rapid, they can be very slippery!

- Part 2: class III rapids between Lezat and La Rixouse.

We did the full section on the 2/4/16 with a level of 4,2m3/s in Morez. It was a good level to discover the gorge. A bit low for the section between Lezat and La Rixouse.
