Description
At Milburnie Dam, paddlers encounter a straightforward Class II rapid with a consistent downstream flow and scattered rocky features. The primary challenge is navigating the boulder-strewn channel while maintaining proper boat control, with potential for tight maneuvering between rocks and moderate hydraulic features. Paddlers should be prepared for potential debris and scout the line carefully during variable water levels.
