Description

After Timber Rattler, you can run a juicy center slot, or circumvent around the left.  Run right below here, heading quickly back left to avoid a subtle and sickly sieve all the water slams into.  Cut back right again below the sieve to line up for Left Down Hut.  Head left for what Daniel Talley calls the west prong line.  It really should be called Daniel Talley is a badass and thinks this rapid is like the west prong rapid.  Back to the right, Left Down Hut begins with a diagonal ledge that you want to finish heading back right.  At all but low flows, boof off the 7 foot finger hard right into a trough that slides down into the pool below.  At low to elf flows, head tight left in front of a doomy boulder, dropping 6 feet landing right above a finishing boof.  Below the pool is Harry Harry's dreamboof on the left for flows above 0, and a fun slot on the right wall at lower flows.
