Description
A big roof in the middle of the river. Unless you come here specifically prepared to climb these lines, I think this one is out of the question. The best way we managed to enjoy these wonderful problems was to ratchet strap two NRS inflatable paddle boards together (these were 10.8 and 11ft boards respectively) and then put organic blubbers over them. This set up worked incredibly well with the spotter guiding the board beneath you. Definitely a cool approach to otherwise unclimbable lines over water (in a stream too shallow for DWS or bigger lake inflatable mats). Not recommended during high water stages. Watch for otters and spiders.
