Description

Hanine Falls is a powerful Class IV waterfall drop with a technical, narrow entry that requires precise boat positioning to avoid deadly hydraulic recirculation zones on either side of the main channel. Paddlers must execute a tight, left-center line with minimal margin for error, using a combination of momentum and precise paddle strokes to navigate the steep vertical descent and maintain control through the turbulent runout.
