Description
The bottom part of Drop 4 in the gorge is primarily defined by a large bridge abutment in the center of the channel. Either side of the abutment is a fine run, however getting to the right above the abutment is tricky since the channel usually pushes to the left. Below the abutment the left side is full of rocks and river debris so a paddler must quickly move the right.
