Las Ratas getting ready to huck.
A big, boily pool to fall into.
The group all atop the stout ready and willing.We had a large group of people ready to run the stout, but our Chilean friend, Zoro, was offering to give us a show and run it first.
Zoro, firing it up first, like it aint no thing.
Vamos Papa!

Toddfater getting ready to run his biggest drop yet.
Toddfather looking good from a downstream angle, giving a good measure to the fall´s true size.Although there were good lines down the falls by everyone in our group, it was the power of the boil and amount of water that got the majority of our group. With epic downtimes and imploded skirts 3 of 6 crew members swam in the pool below. This made quite the downstream chase for Cobra and I, as we collected boats and paddles. 2 laps down...how many more can we get before this manna from heaven runs out ???
After a sick day on the water, the group got together for a classic, Chilean asado. Meat was consumed, booties were drank, and good times were had...
