Most mortals will never paddle this river when the river is this high. This gives you a look at the righthand line. The huge hole is normally the boof. You can run the left side at this level. Most of the sieves are under water.
The boat is underwater here, pinned between the large rock on the right and an sumerged rock.
These two rock almost back up to where the boat is. To hook in the boat you are required to ferry and hold yourself in frount of these rocks, they are extremly undercut.
Justin is removing the rope that was tied to the boat that broke. It is now completely gone and out of the way.
