Description
Bondo Riffle is a straightforward Class II rapid with a clean left-side line through moderate waves and scattered rocks. Paddlers should maintain steady momentum and be prepared to maneuver around potential mid-channel boulders, with the primary challenge being precise boat positioning to avoid potential pin spots or unexpected hydraulics.
