Description
Ledges presents a technical descent through a rocky, boulder-strewn section with multiple potential routes that require precise boat positioning and reading water. Paddlers must carefully navigate between and around large mid-stream rocks, with the potential for pin hazards and complex hydraulics that demand constant attention and skilled maneuvering. The rapid's varied terrain and potential for unexpected obstacles make clean line selection critical for safe passage.
