Are you talking about a rapid named Boulder Drop on the Little White? I'm not familiar with that run. To be clear you do not mean Boulder Drop on the Sky right?

Ben, You mean Boulder Sluce (sp?) on the Little White right?
Horner 3.6 is a medium medium high flow on the little white so that must be what he is talking about.
Hit Boulder Drop on the Sky drop a few days ago with Rob and it seemed all good down Neds anyhow...

Is that the pile of wood that is now on the right side of the boulder or did some shift over to block the entire route. We ran the little white last sat at 3.4 (can never read the top gauge as the water bobs up and donw) on the master blaster gauge and saw that there was a big log jam on the right side of the boulder and were able to run it (though a blown line would have had horrible consequences) but the wood looked unstable so did some of it shift making boulder sluice unrunnable? Also worth mentioning that all wood in s-turn is gone and the old growth below stovepipe is now gone. Have missed paddling with you ben (you may not feel the same on this one) and have a couple new ones we are looking at that we may try to convince you to go on as you made us feel as comfortable as we could have on ernies having someone with your skill along. Will see you on sat for some more shenanigans.

I can't believe the old growth is gone! What about the smaller one that you can boof under on the right side of Stovepipe??
