Description
Doc's Drop is a steep, technical waterfall descent that requires precise boat positioning and expert line selection through a narrow, boulder-strewn channel. Paddlers must navigate a tight entrance with potential for severe hydraulic recirculation, followed by a critical move to avoid undercut rocks and a potentially dangerous ledge hole at the bottom of the drop.
