Description
Rooster Tail rapid features a tight technical line through a series of moderate boulder gardens with potential for pinning hazards on the river's right side. Paddlers should navigate the initial drop by staying center-left, avoiding the undercut rocks and watching for a notable hydraulic near the bottom that can develop at certain water levels.
