Description
Funnel Rapid is a technical Class III drop with a narrow constriction that accelerates water flow and creates powerful diagonal waves and potential pour-over rocks in the center channel. Paddlers should favor the right side of the rapid to avoid the most challenging hydraulics, maintaining precise boat positioning and momentum through the compressed section. Scout this rapid from river right for the best line and to identify any current-season hazards or rock shifts.
