Description

Wave train after the "Bull Falls" pool.  The diagonal waves encourage river left to right moves, but the current generally pulls to the center.  There is a surfing ledge/wave at the bottom, mainly on river left, with the main current in the middle before it shoals out.  Some of the best surfing on the river is here.
