Description

The Stroup Road rapid on the North Toe River presents a technical descent with multiple scattered boulder formations that demand precise boat positioning and clean line selection. Paddlers should be prepared to navigate tight channels between rocks and anticipate potential pinning hazards, particularly during lower water levels when exposed boulder fields become more prominent.
