Mini Gorge's Second Rapid: Center Boof

A pool follows High Turnover.  The river splits 50 feet downstream of the pool.  The left channel is usually blocked with wood. The river-right channel is shallow and cluttered with suitcase-size rocks that want to force you farther right, which is bad.  Regardless of which channel you take, get to the center as you round the island because you want to hit the center launch pad of the ledge that follows. There is real potential for a vertical pin in the right corner of this ledge.

The photo was taken when flow was WAY LOWER than the normal release level.

Be aware that the this ledge changes its nature when level exceeds 3ft on the gauge at the take-out bridge.  The center pad becomes a pour-over into a very large, boiling, recirculating hole.
