Description

Large boulders block the path. The left line is through a pyramid shaped hole (at the right water level) formed by the boulders touching above water level. There are undercut rocks inside the hole so watch the entrance. The right side line requires a hard 90+ degree turn to the left in front of a very nasty undercut slot. This drop contains several sieves. Portage high on the right or through the other hole on the left.
