Description

The river continues with lighter rapids, and (generally) broad sweeping turns. After a broad left turn, as the river turns more sharply right, encountering an island, the second 'marked' rapids occurs. Expect nearly a quarter-mile of increased action with waves and occasional holes. As action subsides a bit, the river takes a hair-pin turn to the right, encoutering an impressive vertical wall.
