Piedra
02. 1st Fork Bridge to Lower Piedra CG(First Box Canyon)
This is the large rock in the middle of the drop that all the current flows into. There is a breaking curler that pushes from rt to left at the bottom of the drop which wants to push you dirctly into this large rock. I punched the curler with too much lft to rt angle and ended up being flushed directly into the pillow rock but was luckily pushed rt after 2 good backstrokes, flipping, and being held breifly. Left of the large rock is a nasty hole that would be difficult to get a rope to or any immediate rescue from. IMO this rapid is a mandatory scout on your first run.
