Escalante Creek - Escalante

Waterslide

Rapid Details

Name Waterslide
Class IV+ to V
Description

This drop is full of hazards.  At high water, there is a terrible recirculating hole against the river right wall (strong safety recommended).  The typical high water line is a center boof, but be wary of boofing too far to the left where a dangerous lurks.  In 2011 a boater was badly pinned for a long time in the sieve and lucky to get out of it unscathed.  At low water, the only line is the river right slide for which the rapid is named.
