Description
Whiteline is a technical Class V rapid characterized by a narrow, boulder-choked channel with powerful hydraulics and multiple sharp turns. Paddlers must navigate precise entry points to avoid dangerous holes and sharp rocks, with minimal margin for error and required advanced boat control and precise line selection. The rapid demands immediate, decisive maneuvering and presents significant consequence for misreading the water or executing an imperfect route.
