Description
This Class II rapid features small waves and scattered rock gardens that require attentive line selection and moderate maneuvering. Paddlers should anticipate minor technical challenges with potential side-surfing opportunities around mid-stream boulder clusters, and maintain awareness of potential shallow spots during low water conditions. The rapid offers an engaging but not overly demanding descent suitable for intermediate kayakers and canoeists familiar with reading water.
