Description
. . . . . . . . . . . . A pretty long rapid with a small island in the middle. Running length wise down the left shoot is a tree thats about 3 feet thick. Stay away from it. On the backside of the tree on river left is a minor cave. I've seen two boats surfing behind the tree in the cave at once. At low water the route is down the left beside the tree. Above 6 inchs you can run a route that starts down the right and ends in the middle. Portaging this one ain't easy.
