Description
Upper Cable is a straightforward Class II rapid with moderate technical challenges, featuring a series of small to medium-sized waves and scattered boulder gardens that require precise boat positioning. Paddlers should stay alert for potential rock obstacles in the main channel and be prepared to make quick directional adjustments, particularly during higher water flows when the rapid's complexity increases.
