Description

Exit the river on River Right and proceed to the overlook for a great view for scouting. The 20 foot falls are a mandatory scout, and a portage for most. It is renown for collecting wood (even if it was clear an hour prior) and must be scouted before every run. The two most common lines are on the left and right sides, while the middle can be ran at high flows. Being offline means a paddler could land on rocks (or wood) - many boats have been cracked here.
