That's the Sheraton Suites in the background. Running waterfalls is even more fun when you know you have a bunch of middle-aged, middle-class spectators.
The standard line is to hug the left bank and hang on as the bottom drops out underneath you. The higher the level, the spankier the hole at the bottom of the staircase slide. Depending on the level, you can also run this drop in the middle, as a simple 15-foot waterfall, or on the right, catching an eddy to the right of a scary rock at the base.
Try to stay upright, because after you land, the river will immediately neck down to a narrow slot-pourover combination. Fun fun FUN!
This is not the same 'Stu' who embarrassed himself by swimming affront of all the middle-agers at the restaurant back in 1996.
