| Description: |
The Cascade looks intimidating, but is relatively easy,,, and such a fun rapid (as long as you stay upright). It starts out river right-ish with about a 5-foot boof onto sloped, mostly smooth, rock lubricated with a thin layer of water. Once you start, it is hard to find enough water depth to get a paddle stroke in on this long slide. At the end of the slide is another drop of 6 ft or so. The top panorama is two images 'stitched' together and really don't do justice to the impressive view when looking back upstream. In the top image Dan (green boat) is on target with the preferred line. The bottom left image Zach was a little right and was able to work back to the desired drop area. |
