Description
Take Out rapid marks the terminus of this stretch, characterized by a narrow constriction that funnels water through a technical boulder field with limited maneuvering room. Paddlers must carefully navigate the tightly packed rocks and potential undercuts, maintaining precise boat control to avoid pinning or getting wedged between obstacles. Local knowledge is critical, as the rapid's complexity increases with varying water levels and can quickly become unrunnable or extremely hazardous.
