I'm also planning on Das Boot in two weeks (Friday). Based on Toms recomendations for Kolob and Boundary it sounds like it may be a "burly" trip! :cold:

Will have some pictures of the flow in the Subway (and thus Das Boot) up soon, but... it's at maybe 1-2-3 cfs currently, could go up or down some, but unlikely to change a lot. Thus, might have some of the same kind of thrills. Lots of small downclimbs in DB, that are made much more difficult by a little flow which hides the holds. That said, with good drysuit or wetsuit, and some skills, I would think it reasonable.
