Description
My Monkey is the final significant drop on Big Creek, featuring a complex, technical descent with multiple challenging moves through a narrow, boulder-choked channel. Paddlers must navigate a series of tight, offset slots with high consequences for missed lines, requiring precise boat control and the ability to quickly maneuver around or through potentially sticky hydraulics.
