Report
| Account | This is one of three slots in the approach to Cueball. It's not necessary to run any of the slots, but it's fun. Some of the slots get nasty at some water levels. Cueball's a nice play hole at this level. Threading the needle between the Recyclotron hole (upstream, river right) and the Cloud Chamber (downstream, river left). At this level, mortals don't play in Recyclotron. At some levels, the Cloud Chamber can be a play spot. The first of the three slots in the entry to Cueball. At this level, it's not a really terrible slot; at some levels, it's kinda pinny. I don't think anyone ran this slot that day. Kinda looks undercut, don'tcha think? From this perspective, you can see the rock that paddlers get shoved into if they're not careful...especially if they flip. It may not be undercut, but I'm sure being up against it feels awfully dangerous, so it's the cause of many swims. This is the first "major" rapid. At this level, it's probably class III. You can see that there are a couple holes to avoid. Anyone who has major trouble with this relatively easy rapid should consider walking out...hence the name. This is an excellent level for playing in Typewriter, the playhole just below Big Nasty. The river-left side is always trashier than the river-right side. Therefore, the line for river left is generally shorter than the line for river right. |
