Description
Hardy Riffle presents a straightforward Class II rapid with scattered mid-stream rocks and a moderate current that requires attentive navigation. Paddlers should be prepared to maneuver around exposed boulders near the center of the channel and maintain a clean line through the scattered wave trains. At standard water levels, the rapid offers moderate technical challenges but can become more complex with significant water level fluctuations.
