Description
Chittam Rapid features a series of powerful, closely-spaced waves and a technical boulder field that demands precise maneuvering, with the primary line running right of center near the initial drop. Paddlers should be prepared for potential hydraulics and the need to quickly adjust course to avoid scattered mid-river rocks, with the most consequential hazards concentrated in the rapid's middle section.
