Report

Account	This photo depicts the rapid well at medium water levels. You'll notice Thumb Rock barely sticking out of the water at the bottom of the picture (top of the rapid). About half way down the rapid in the center of the river, the rock (Buery's Rock) that is barely out of the water forms a BIG hole above 13,000 cfs. The flat rectangular rock on river left towards the bottom of the rapid is known as the Butchers Block and is extremely undercut. The rock guarding the exit of the rapid at the bottom is also undercut. This rapid is best scouted from the top of the big boulder on the top right of the rapid. Enjoy!
