Description

Located as you are nearing the Doe River Gorge Christian Camp, this rapid starts with a benign 3-4' ledge with most of the flow going left-of-center heading into a very sticky horseshoe hole (at virtually all boatable levels). It has caused many a swim by paddlers who have let their guard down. At levels around 650 and higher, the best choice may be to run the short-slide to the right of the hole at river center.
