Puke
Description
DO NOT put in at the Bridge!!! And please don't put in via the Blackwater Falls boardwalk overlook on river right. After working your way down the steep trail to the putin on river left, make sure you take a look at the first rapid, Phil's or 100 Yard Dash. You'll probably gaze upstream at some point to see the off-limits 60' Blackwater Falls, a burly slide called Rollin' The Bones, and just above the put in - a horrendous looking drop on the river right side called Puke. Here the river falls off an 8-10-foot ledge into a sieve. The sieve is not quite large to fit the whole flow of the river, so some water bubbles up and over the sieve rock (which creates an extra 3-foot drop). It has been run (including by the ZoneDogg and Diablito) but it is not recommended. At higher flows, the river left side of this rapid goes through a very difficult and tight but slightly less heinous drop than Puke called the Notch. again, not recommended.
