Description

After an initial warm-up of gently moving water, the river turns sharply left and tilts downhill. Class III/IV whitewater has an eddy on the lower left; you may want to catch this eddy and scout around the next bend. The river turns sharply to the right, narrows, and ends in a hole which can usually be punched through. The waterfall is several hundred yards downstream.
