Did I mention the Sieves?

Report

Account Yes...The entire river goes under this rock. Better make your eddy! This is an 8-10ft drop into a boxed in room lined with sieves. There is no escape. The water exits through sieves from a boxed in room at the base of the falls. This is the downstream side of the room. Just another sieve on the Roaring Paunch where most if not all of the water goes under boulders.
