Description

Ramshorn Rapid is a technical Class III drop with a series of large, closely-spaced waves and a narrow main channel that requires precise boat positioning. Paddlers must navigate a tight line between exposed mid-stream boulders and a powerful lateral wave on river right, with the most direct route demanding quick maneuvering and good river reading skills.
