Description
The first notable rapid, is Double Ledges(II-).
Ledge #1 (one - two foot drop) - Small surfing wave forms mid-stream at top of rapid. River left eddy is large, beginners should catch a breathe here. Smaller eddy on river left allows for easier access to small surf wave. Ledge #2 (two-three foot drop) - Small side surfing ledge hole forms midstream to river left eddy.  River left eddy is large. Smaller eddy on river right. Easiest to enter side surf hole from river right, bracing on right side(downstream). The main flow channel downstream of the Ledge #2 allows for stern squirts from the river left eddy. At higher levels(2 feet above normal) a creek wide surf wave(4 feet tall) forms.
