Description
(For now, distance is map-based estimate.) The rapid is created by sharp, dynamite-blasted rocks that were used in a long-collapsed dam. The narrow island that divides the river can be run on either side, but be careful of deadfall on the left. Class II at moderate water levels, but more challenging with higher water.
