Runnable: 500.0 – 8,000.0 CFS

Reasonable beginner/intermediate level.

For many, at usual levels, this is the highlight of the run. A very significant landslide from river-right altered the right side of this drop in Spring 2009. Time has helped considerably, and there are now a few different lines boaters use to run this drop.
