Description
Steamboat Rapid is a technical Class III drop with a series of offset waves and pour-overs that demand precise boat positioning and paddle control. The main channel features a tight line along the right side, requiring paddlers to navigate between several large mid-river rocks and a powerful hydraulic that can quickly flip an improperly angled boat.
