Description
Bathtub is a technical Class III rapid with a complex boulder garden that requires precise boat positioning and careful route selection. Paddlers must navigate a series of closely spaced rocks and hydraulics, with the primary line running center-right and demanding quick maneuvering to avoid potential pin spots and aggressive holes. At higher water levels, the rapid becomes more pushy with increased recirculating features, necessitating a clean, controlled descent.
