Description

This is the first significant drop on the run. Although it is not big, it has several odd and tricky ledge holes. Scout from either side, but probably a bit easier to scout on the river left. The main line is from the right back towards the center. There can be a shallow sneak route down the left edge.

Mileage and location marker are close, but approximate.
