Description
Pony Express features a series of moderate but technical Class III drops with several large mid-stream boulders creating complex current seams and potential pinning hazards. The primary line runs river right of the central rock formation, requiring precise boat positioning and quick maneuvering to navigate the mixed hydraulics and avoid potential keeper holes near the larger rocks.
