The Duddon is still pretty much blocked between Troutal and the 'triangle rock' near the cattle grid. We hacked a path through on the right but would still be sketchy with any decent flow in it.
Also Logan Beck a fair bit of wood in it. Most of it is pretty obvious but the rapid after the S bend (round the right, in to the shoot, and past the garden) has a tree in when I was last there. Also the gorge below the Bridge (just beneath the above) has a very dangerous tree stump in. Which is shame because its about the only rapid you can run from the boat usually!
I had a go at clearing parts of Crosby gill. There is one remaining blockage between x+y, But the big drop in Y is now clear enough to run. The top section (above x) is a bit of pain with loads of odd bits and overhanging stuff.
