Description

Immediately after the pool below S-Curve, you begin nearly a mile-long stretch of continuous class II boulder-garden rapids. Lower Roaring Rapids are just a bit more technical/difficult than the Upper Roaring Rapids stretch, and are a great way to wind down after the more intense action of the six larger rapids. Catch eddies, surf waves, and boof rocks before the gradient diminishes to the final flatwater paddle-out.
