Description

Multiple entrance moves, there is a straight forward line on the river right side, yet somewhat more shallow than the left entry. The left line curls around a rock known as "Alligator Rock" where water level can be eyeballed. Both lines meet up on the river right side at a small ledge and then move towards the center of the river to drop over the ledge into Double Suck. Known for it's 2 hydraulics as a great surfing spot and a bad swimming spot, Double Suck is a small waterfall into a hole. Often times rafts will gather in the eddy behind the large rocks in the center of the river to queue for surfing the second hole. Hard boaters will often queue in smaller eddies on the river right where there is also a skirt line around the holes and still boasts a fun drop.
