Description

Huge boulders dam the river and form a nice long pool. The spillway between the boulders is a big ramp and accelerates boaters to almost 2 times light speed, hence the name. Scout from either side, but the left side is probably better for setting safety. The base of the spillway can develop a sticky hole or boaters can flush through with minimal carnage. The large boulder immediately downstream on the right which makes for a good vantage point is completely undercut. It seems to be smooth enough that the few boaters I have seen go under have flushed right on out the other side.
Warp 2 is impressive in itself but it is only the entrance drop of a long and serious class 5 section, which ends with Cassady Falls.
