1st Ledge - "Darby's Nose"

The first ledge ('Darby's Nose') can be run on the far right, where there is an easy runout.  The rest of the ledge, particularly up against the rock wall on the far left, creates a hole that can be retentive at certain water levels.  Despite this, the ledge can usually, without event, be punched on a center left line, as long as the paddler is lined up straight, takes the drop aggressively and stays away from the far left rock wall.
