Default drifting the trask/kilchis rivers

Does anyone know what the drifts are like from logger bridge down, or from Lorens Drift or above Down? and how difficult? Never drifted either place, but heard they're easy?

The lower river is a fun one to learn. There are no obstructions to worry about. It's a good beginners run, much like the lower Wilson. The upper part use to have a tree across near the park. I don't know what it's like anymore, haven't run it in a few years.

The Kilchis is easy from the logging bridge down. Lorens down to 101 is easy except for the first riffle below Lorens. You run the island to the right and under lower water conditions is is smart( if not the only way) to rope your boat through. Down to Lorens is easy except for the launch.
