Hehehe...and holding it (especially for hours and hours) feels BAD!
I'm never wearing a dry suit again for "that" reason! :/

We left lava point TH around 7 I think and we got to our camp (after the 3rd narrows) right as the sun went down. None of us had a watch so I can't be sure. The in line 8 is where we joined the ropes for the pull down side. ~ |

It's not an inline 8, though...it's a rethreaded 8-on-bight
8-on-bight bend? not sure of the name, but here's the knot in detail:
