Entrance rapid before the first class V. Scouting is possiable on river right bank. Be careful, these rocks are very slick year round.
1st drop of the last 3 class V's on Middle Cullasaja
If you look hard you can see Cosmic Crunch in the background on the left. Since the reach descriptions have changed and don't include cosmic anymore, I guess it's unrunnable? I'm hoping to get something better this weekend.
This is about 50 yards above the beginning of the really big drops above Cullasaja Falls. There is another ledge above this one that could make for some park and play. You'll see a sandy beach on the right marking the drops.
This is what's to come if you opt to run the Class V's above the Falls. The first drop is right before this, there is a small pool before you begin to run around that huge rock. The drop before is about a 8-10 foot broken ledge.
