Description

This Class II rapid features a straightforward riffle with scattered mid-stream rocks that require attentive maneuvering during moderate to low water levels. Paddlers should aim for the clearest channel near river right, watching for potential pin hazards around larger boulder clusters, and maintain a steady downstream momentum to successfully navigate the feature.
