Description

The next rapid below Cindy's again splits into two main channels, they converge and funnel through several slots. The center slot is the cleanest, the left slot consists of a turn with a potential pin rock. Avoid the far left side above 4.5 feet. The sloped triangle rock (like a piece of apple pie) on the bottom left forms a sieve above this level. There have been some close calls here. At lower levels, the sieve is no factor as water is not flowing through it. Big holes develop above 5.5 feet.
