Description

There are two options for the new Go Left. A run through the squeeze will either feed you directly into the right line or push you left into a short pool. If going direct, be prepared to scramble away from the right wall. 

If you have opted to portage left, you can seal launch or put in to the left channel. The left channel presents an excellent righty water boof directly into a big lefty off the main ledge. See attached photo for said left boof!

Walking around the top bit can make for a fun and low-stress run, while running the squeeze is sure to get the adrenaline flowing. 

Do your best to keep upright here. There have been some questionable stern taps and landings off the bottom ledge, so it's best to keep your plastic beneath you.
