Description
This rapid features a prominent pour-over rock with a potentially retentive hole that can create significant hydraulic challenges for paddlers. Depending on water levels, the feature can range from a technical maneuver to a potentially dangerous obstacle requiring careful line selection and precise boat positioning. Paddlers should scout carefully and be prepared to navigate around or through the central hydraulic, maintaining momentum and angle to avoid potential entrapment.
