Description
The Head of Gradient rapid presents a technical descent through a constricted channel with potential for submerged rocks and unpredictable flow dynamics. Paddlers should carefully scout the entry point and be prepared for quick maneuvering, as the rapid's gradient creates potential for hydraulic features that could challenge even experienced whitewater runners.
