Description
Fishermen's is a technical Class III rapid with a series of large, irregularly spaced pour-overs and boulder gardens that require precise maneuvering. Paddlers must navigate a complex main current that splits around several large mid-river rocks, with the potential for powerful hydraulics on river left during higher water levels. The rapid demands careful route selection and quick boat control to avoid potential pin spots and maintain momentum through the constricted channel.
