Description

A short drop into a narrow channel, then an even narrower squeeze where the river pours down a falls (with a trip-rock/piton-rock in the early face of the drop) into a brief pool (with rock) before a steep slide into a bony exit as the water spreads across more bedrock.

It has been run a few times, but it is exceedingly difficult to really 'style' it.
