Description
The Dam waterfall is a steep, technical drop requiring precise navigation through a narrow chute with a powerful hydraulic at the base. Paddlers must execute a tight right-to-left move to avoid the recirculating hole and potential pin rocks, with minimal margin for error. Scouting is strongly recommended, and a skilled team with solid boat control and rescue skills is essential for safe passage.
