Description
Rapids presents a continuous Class III challenge with pushy water and multiple technical moves through a rock-studded channel. Paddlers should be prepared for irregular hydraulics and closely spaced drops that require precise boat positioning, with the primary line running center-right to avoid undercut boulders and potential pin hazards.
