Description

Boulders fill up the left side of the canyon and constrict the river against the right wall which is a large and beautiful cliff. The main channel runs against this wall. Boulders guard the entrance creating several steep chutes leading into the main chute. Strong diagonal waves on the left try to push boats into the wall which is slightly undercut in spots. Paddlers must punch two large ledges halfway through the chute. The run out splits around some large boulders and contains further though lesser difficulties.

Kayakers can enter on the far right at the top putting them in proper orientation to punch the diagonal and then run the ledges on the left. Rafts have a bit tougher time.
