Unhappier Ending

Rafters be aware: There is a ripper rock just under the surface mid-stream just after Unhappy Ending.

We put a 7' gash in a SOTAR in the flat-water runout from the rapid last year.  If I recall, it was only about 50' after the end of the last move right in mid-current at average flow. We have no idea what did it, but it was immediate. I had the boat sideways as we were looking back at the rapid a slice sound and a hiss right across the side of the left-side tube.

I'll be staying further left or right after the last move in that aptly-named drop.
