Description
This is a long and busy rapid that can be entered center left. Go over a couple drops and look for midway eddy on the left. From either eddy you can set up for a two part ledge drop. The second pourover requires a committed boof into either the left or right eddies. At higher water, the rest of the rapid can be run down the right or right to left. At lower water, however, it seems best to start left through the final boulder drop to avoid pinning rocks.
