Description

Following a lengthy and sometimes shallow wave train, two large boulders appear on river right, with a narrow channel of water flowing between the two. It’s easy to avoid the boulders to the left side, though most boaters will take the slot if it’s clear of wood. At 8” and above, the left side of this slot between the boulders is the best boof on the creek.
