Description
Island Rapid features a technical boulder garden with multiple channels that split around a mid-river island, requiring precise maneuvering to avoid potential pin spots and keeper hydraulics. The primary line runs along the right side of the island, with a series of offset waves and small ledges that demand quick boat control and good route selection. Paddlers should be alert for potential undercut rocks and shifting channels, especially at lower water levels.
