Description

Woodruff Rapids is a technical Class IV drop with a complex entry requiring precise boat positioning to navigate a series of tight, boulder-strewn channels. Paddlers must carefully thread between several large midstream rocks while managing powerful hydraulics and a steep gradient that creates unpredictable wave trains and potential pin hazards.
