SAMPLE:
Rapid Name | Length | Eddy above | Eddy below | Grade | Info | High Water Specifics | Low water | Camping/ Emergency access |
Rocky River | M | RR | RL | 1 | 3 channels slow moving water between obstacles | Need to assess tree hazards at higher levels | RL is best option at low levels |
Long flat pool | |||||||
Rollercoaster | L | RL | RR | 2/3 | Rocky lead in with fun drop into fast moving big waves, start RL and then nose over to RR at drop | Option to portage down RL channel and paddle last 5ms if needed, can get a lot of water pushing into trees on RL at high water | A fun one with a few more rocks to dodge in the lead in and on the lower third |
Barb-be-que | M | RR | RR | 2 | 3 channels between rocks to choose from, often all nice, good for choose your own adventure | Leave space between boats and cover bottom third, can be prone to friendly carnage | FENCE OFTEN PUT ACROSS RL AT BOTTOM DURING LOWER RIVER LEVELS, MUST CHECK AND COVER |
