Description

Certainly the most intimidating rapid on the Sou. Take a good look at this before you drop and then remind yourself that it is easier than it looks. The line is on river left, duck under (to the right) the breaker wave off the left shore and aim for the left corner of the whole RIGHT BEFORE the drop. Punch this hole and aim for the black tongue, square the hay stack up and hold on for the ride.
