Rapid OH Class II

Mad River Run second drop

Mad River - Mad River Run (OH)

Gauge Conditions
Runnable: 700.0 – 3,000.0 CFS
Description

What used to be the second drop of Mad River Run before the collapse. This drop survived but is slightly more aggressive now without the first drop holding back water, and its character has changed again with the removal of the center island.

To run this straight, follow the green tongue on river right (it's further right than you think while sitting in the pool above) into a small wave train. Surfers will want to get into the eddies on either side and work their way across, hopping from wave to wave as well as a small eddy or two amidst the controlled chaos. This is not an easy place to surf, and you won't be doing any tricks, but it's good skill practice.
