Description
The Old Iron Bridge rapid features a technical descent with multiple rock obstacles and potential channel shifts that demand precise boat positioning. Paddlers should be prepared for narrow passages and potential undercut rocks near the bridge structure, with the recommended line requiring careful navigation and quick maneuvering. Local water levels can significantly impact the rapid's character, so scouting and local knowledge are advised before attempting this section.
