Description
Rapids presents a technical Class III challenge with a series of closely spaced hydraulics and large mid-river boulders that require precise boat positioning and quick maneuvering. The rapid features a complex entry with a strong river-right current that can push boats toward a recirculating hole, demanding paddlers to maintain an aggressive line and use strategic eddy turns to navigate safely.
