Rapid Details

Description

This rapid is right above the Tunnel Chute.  A simple wave hole with minimal flatwater below here doesn't leave a lot for boaters to eddy out left or right just before Tunnel.

Scout

Best choice for someone never running this before would be to eddy out above Last Chance and scout Last Chance and Tunnel all at the same time.
