Description

The ledge is distinctly visible as you drive up the road and it is not difficult.  We ran it center or center right.  A left side drop looked to have pin potential.  The lead in to the ledge is more difficult.  Start from an eddy on the left, run the lead in and eddy out on the right above the ledge.

The run out below the ledge does not let up.  Run it generally down the right.  Scout from the road.
