Description

The river goes down a short ramp then bends to the left and after a brief hallway of laterals goes over a small ledge. At release flows typically run left to center down the ramp, center through the hallway, then choosing one of several prows of the ledge to boof. At low flows (400ish) the ledge requires specific placement and a late boof to avoid landing on submerged boulders.
