Description

This is the longest rapid on this run, consisting of good sized waves and laterals with large eddies on either side. It offers interesting play at many flows. One time I saw a full sized creek boat do a mystery move while trying to surf in this rapid. The canyon is opening out into the Temperance Flat basin at this rapid.

The mileage is a rough estimate while the coordinates are close but approximate.
