Wonder Falls

After a mile of mostly Class-3 ledgy stuff, with some good play, the paddler comes to Wonder Falls. This 18-footer, which follows a mildly complex set of offset diagonal holes, is one of the more photogenic rapids around, and it's easier than most falls of its height. Warning: at higher water, 6.5' or so, it sneers viciously at the off-line paddler, with a hydraulic that will multiply recirculate the unfortunate swimmer. Those who want to run it a second, third, or seventh time carry back up on river left, a short hike through the omnipresent rhododendrons. One paddling friend found a can of beer there once, which made the foot attainment doubly worthwhile!
