Description
Terminator 2 is a powerful Class III drop featuring a technical entrance with a tight line between two prominent rocks and a substantial hydraulic in the center of the rapid. Paddlers must navigate a quick sequence of diagonal waves and maintain precise boat positioning to avoid getting pushed into the central hole, which can create significant recirculation during higher water flows. Scout from river right for the best route and be prepared for quick maneuvering to successfully thread between the entry obstacles.
