Description

One Hundred Percent is a great rapid that can be recognized by a cliff on the right and an obvious horizon line. It is located at river mile 169.7. Drive left to right over the diagonal wave at the entry and hold on as you careen down through a slalom of boulders and holes. A large hole on the right at the bottom of the rapid can be avoided on the left, or boofed on the far right. This hole isn't sticky until the level gets above 2,000cfs, but there is a barely submerged rock about 10 feet downstream of it, and if you flip here, the saying goes, you will hit your head 100% of the time. After the hole, somewhat manky class II/III run out follows making swims on this rapid very unpleasant. A short flatwater float brings you to the takeout on the right.
