Elk River, Back Fork

pasted 2 pics together to get a better look at the rapid.
just another ledge
This is the ledge that my buddy had a bad swim in(fortunatly i was fast with the rope) but he lost his paddle and we had to wait 25 min for his boat to flush out...hint...aim for the river left eddy.. heh. oh and if u have newish padlers in your group mite be an ok idea to set up a safty at the bottom,, if they swim and dont make it to shore another river wide 10 footer is roughly 100 feet away.
This is the first ledge, you realy cant miss the horizon line from upstream.There was a huge hole to river left,was shaped like a horseshoe with most of the water plunging into it,looked really nasty.I ran way right but after looking from the bottom u can run anywhere on the right as long as your angled to the right as u go off.
This ledge is towards the end only a few more after this 1,, if i remember rite.This one is fun,the river widens out a lil here and we ran it out in the middle, the aproach was very blind just a big horizon line and to far from shore to judge where your at.
