Description
Just around the first bend is a series of holes and standing waves. At high levels they become quite large. The first waves are deep and narrow. They are tough to stay in. The waves near the end of the rapid are not as deep but very wide. On the right side of the river there is a large concrete block that provides eddy service for surfing some of the waves on this rapid.
