Description

Located at river mile 30.9 on the Sol Duc River where the hatchery weir creates a large standing wave providing great surfing when rivers are high and nearing or exceeding flood stage. Use caution at the higest flows when trees and other debris are floating down the river. Unfortunately, a flood destroyed this feature and the remaining portion of the weir has been removed but it is planned for reconstruction by 2027. It's unclear if the new design will form the features paddlers knew as the Mosh Pit.
