Description

Newton Falls starts with a slide, then there are a few holes to dodge, followed by a small slide into a hole, and then ends in a slide with several lines. There are eddy's throughout the rapid. We scouted the first part of the rapid left and scouted the last part from a rock in the middle. Not sure if that was the best idea though. Some big holes as the level goes up.
