Description

Below Apple Pie, the main channel to the left leads to a 10-foot wide slot with a ledge drop. Head off with some speed to the center. The hole below can be a little sticky, but don't let the boat veer into the notch on the left side of the slot. Use enough speed to pass the notch, but slow enough to ride the left side of the ledge for a sweet boof. Portage trail is to the right which continues around the next rapid as-well.
