Description
Rapids is a technical Class III rapid situated at river mile 38.7, featuring a complex boulder-strewn entry with multiple potential routes that require precise maneuvering. Paddlers should be prepared for a series of hydraulic features and potential rock pins, with the primary line threading between mid-river boulders and requiring a strong right-to-left move to avoid a recirculating hole on the river right side.
