Description
Scout from river left. This tricky rapid features a moderate sieve on river right that the large hole / curler in the drop can feed you in to. At reasonable levels, people have been pushed into this sieve / eddy portion of the rapid and have been able to get turned around and paddle out without incident. Run the final 4-5 foot drop on the right to avoid rocks that are on the bottom left of the drop.
