Description

The rapid starts just above the confluence with Hard Cr. As with most of Hazard Cr. the lead in is busy class III water, avoiding protruding rocks and small holes. The run is on the right side just a few feet from the bank, boofing off the tip of the rock. The hole below will surf a paddler for a while if missed but not too much of a concern. Finish the rapid by going around the shallow rocks below and punching another small hole.
