Description

As the river splits, you’re coming into Bend. The left channel is boring and tends to collect strainers at the entrance—best to avoid unless you're desperate to change it up. The right channel is where the action is, featuring a series of compression waves formed by a sequence of ledge drops. Surfing opportunities abound along river right, but eddies are scarce, so grab what you can on the way down!
