Description
Osprey is a long Class III rapid on the Pit 5 section, characterized by continuous boulder-strewn rapids that demand precise boat positioning and quick maneuvering between rocks. Paddlers should be prepared for a technical descent with multiple line options, watching for potential hydraulics and keeping momentum to navigate through the rocky constrictions.
