Description
The river makes a sharp right turn dropping into Givney's rapids. Swirling currents at the top of the river.
 Begin Givney's rapids in river center then get left to avoid "soup strainer" which is a hole/pourover extending out to river center. Immediately after you pass soup strainer quickly move back to center as there is another serious hole just below and on the left that extends out to the center of the river.
