New York Slide

The Slide picks up wood on the left where there is a long 90 degree corner that defines the river left bank. The water flumes towards this and down along it. The dry scout showed a huge worn and stripped tree in this spot. Hedging the strainer bets, with light fading fast, we were happy to run the techincal river right side with the large piton rock in play. It was boat abusive. The left side is probably the more fun side for future runs. It was challenging on the right to miss the piton rock and we had mixed results of hit or miss, but the irregular creek bottom and the merge into the quick river left water caused both boaters to finish the drop backwards. There was a Large eddy to catch on the bottom right.
