Description

The bottom ledge is typically run on the right edge, or sometimes by ski jumping off the rock on the left.   At lower flows the reversal in the bottom ledge is not super sticky for which off line boaters can be thankful.   Naturally as flows rise the consequences get more severe.   At very high flows this drop becomes a river wide reversal and is often portaged.
