Silver Bullet

Report

Account	This is the first of three sections of Hail Mary on the Silver. Most of the river right side is undercut, but a huge pillow billowing out from under it makes it easy to stay out from underneath it. The upper most rapid in the picture is the Upper Cabin Section which is separated from the rapids in the middle and lower portion of the picture by a small pool. The rapid that spills off the bottom of the picture is the entrance to the Lower Cabin Section and is also known as the Silver Bullet. This is Richard coming out of Silver Bullet. The pool he is emerging into has a deceptively strong backwash so don't quit paddling. Directly below this is about another 30 yards of ledges before an eddy on the river right. The trick to this rapid is to keep paddling once you start down the Bullet and especially once you hit the hole at the base.
