Description

The river drops down to the left then bends sharp to the right, past large boulders on the left and middle. Boaters are forced to enter in the middle at the top of the rapid, but must work hard to get right as soon as possible to avoid the pour overs on the bottom left. There are narrow and exciting routes through the rocks on the left at most flows, but a mistake will lead to carnage. Scout from river left.
