Description

A moderate ledge drop with a straightforward center line that provides a clean descent through a moderate gradient. Paddlers should be prepared for a small pourover on river right and some potential reactive side waves that can destabilize boats if not navigated carefully. Scout from the right bank to identify the cleanest route and assess current water levels.
