Description

Drop 3A is very similar in character to 2A. An abrupt steep drop that can be easily boat scouted. There is a large eddy to the right below the drop, however at medium and higher levels the area between sections 3A and 3B becomes a continuous set of waves and holes where momentum tends to carry boaters directly from 3A into drop 3B.
