Description
A short, straightforward Class II drop with a narrow entry channel that requires precise boat positioning to avoid scattered mid-stream boulders. The rapid's primary challenge is a small pourover rock near the center that creates a modest hole at medium water levels, which can be easily navigated by staying slightly right of the midline.
