Yes, Westwall = Confusion. Rafters shun the all-right line, especially at
high flows, because of a big undercut rock below. Cassady mentions it.
Probably it is of little concern to a maneuverable kayak.



Hi Bill,

The only time we ran the Forks was at 2500 cfs. I actually ran the side
chute in Vortex. We ran Westwall (IIRC) left to right. We carried Carson
Falls.

Big fun! Serious fun, though. That Westwall is one impressive looking
rapid. And the whole run is one of the prettiest in the world. Really!

This was back in 1987. Boy, I'm sure getting old!

Best,

Chuck
