First decent of Rossman falls

Perhaps the first decent of Rossman Falls! I took a small tongue just right of center (though I missed it by a couple feet to the right) and boofed it to try and minimize penitration on landing. As it was I felt the bottom and my paddle came out of one hand on my first roll attempt. Got it on my second. Would be good to study the landing at low water to find the deepest pool. I think if I'd penciled in I would have pitoned on the bottom.
