Description
Race Creek rapid offers a straightforward Class II descent with scattered boulder gardens that require precise maneuvering. At higher water levels, paddlers can find a surfable playspot near the center of the rapid, but boaters should be prepared to navigate around mid-stream rocks and potential hydraulics. Scout the rapid's line from the right bank to identify the cleanest path through the boulder field and assess current water conditions.
