Trip Report

ReporterRobert S. Farmer

At the river-wide ledge waterfall, the best line was on the right. The rest of the ledge forms a sticky hydraulic of varying intensity, depending on level. Scout!

The eddy/pool underneath the NFB (Nightmarish Floating Boulder) circulates viciously--probably the worst aspect of this drop is the thought of flipping at this pool and spending a long time in the boiling, chaotic water and washing under the NFB, which is enormous.
