Description
User Friendly is a technical Class V rapid featuring a lead-in slide that quickly transitions into a complex boulder garden with multiple challenging lines. Paddlers must navigate precise moves between sharp rocks and potential keeper holes, with the primary line requiring careful boat positioning and aggressive paddling through a series of tight, consequential drops.
