Description

This long, bouldery rapid on the Middle Yuba River demands careful route-finding through a complex boulder field that creates multiple potential channels and potential pin hazards. Paddlers will need to maintain precise boat control and make quick decisions while navigating the tight spaces between large rocks, with the potential for unexpected hydraulics and narrow passages that could trap or flip an unwary kayaker.
