Description
Stinker Rapid presents a straightforward Class II drop with a series of moderate waves and potential rock obstacles near the center and right side of the channel. Paddlers should aim for a center-left line to avoid potential hydraulics and maintain momentum through the rapid's main chute, staying alert for mid-river rocks during lower water conditions.
