Description
Immediately below Firescape is Triple Drop, the final piece de resistance of the steep creek section of Henderson. Here the creek smoothes down a nice slot tongue for 6 feet, immediately into another 6 foot shoulder, and then turns to face the left wall for a blind and beautiful slot slide with a fluffy friend at the bottom. Below here is another good class 4, then it is 100 yards of shallows to the confluence with Polebridge Creek, where a break is given.
