Save this feature with the run it belongs to.

Gauge Conditions

Runnable: 800.0 – 10,000.0 CFS

Likely too low for any real whitewater.

Description

This is a pourover that is near the end of the run. At lower flows this is one heck of a strong hole (don't ask me how I know). Drive hard left, punch the shoulder of the hole and catch the eddy. At higher flows it breaks into two holes. The right is bad and the left is surfable. After this rapid there has been some construction and has narrowed the stream creating some large waves.
