Description
Logjam is a technical Class III+ rapid with a dangerous wood hazard that requires careful navigation. Paddlers must scout and run far right, avoiding fallen timber and potential strainers that can create serious entrapment risks. The rapid's complexity comes from its tight line and the potential for wood movement during different water levels, demanding precise boat control and situational awareness.
