Description
Boofant is a powerful Class V rapid featuring a steep, technical drop with multiple mandatory moves through a narrow constriction. Paddlers must navigate a series of sharp rocks and potentially hydraulic holes, requiring precise boat placement and aggressive line selection to avoid getting worked in the recirculating features. A mistimed or poorly executed line can result in significant consequences, making this a rapid that demands full concentration and advanced whitewater skills.
