Description
This major drop features a significant waterfall that demands precise navigation and expert-level skill. Paddlers must carefully scout the drop, identify the cleanest line, and be prepared for potential hydraulic recirculation at the base of the falls, which could create a dangerous entrapment scenario. The narrow channel and surrounding rocky terrain require absolute technical precision to successfully navigate this challenging waterfall.
