Description

A few easier ledges and holes lead to the next big drop, a triple which is usually scouted (river right). While a right side sneak on the first drop is sometimes used, there are piton rocks to be aware of. The (more usually run) left side of the first drop is a round-house slide with a couple of holes, the second drop is a sharp, short ledge (great boof), then one slides to down a smooth alley to run the final sloping ledge fairly well to the left for an 'off-ramp' into the pool below.
