Upper Dog Leg

Waterfall / Large DropClass IV
Upper Dog Leg

Description

The next drop, Dog Leg, is the longest combination on the run. The river swings to the right (scout left), over a short ledge to a brief pool, then a 4' sloping ledge into a hole. The strong outflow from there leads straight into a huge boulder in the center of the channel. This boulder tends to catch logs, which (almost as often as not) preclude running Upper Dogleg. The right side (beside and below) is a jumble of rocks (pretty impassible). The left side has a shallow ledge extending from shore (parallel to the current leading to the rock) over which the flow tumbles, and is directed onto another rock to 'trip over' as you finish Upper Dog Leg.
