Description

The Slot is left of Moose Jaw Falls and right of The Maze.

 

This is a bumpy slot dropping 5 or 6 feet into the pool below Moose Jaw Falls.  Really bumpy below 3,000 cfs.  Even above that, keep your bow up to prevent smashing into the rock that creates a roostertail about halfway through the rapid.  With more water it gets smoother and is quite a bit of fun.  At flood it merges into Moose Jaw Falls and becomes a scary mess.
