Beaver

But that drop only needs a playboat: Eagle Falls, Beaver R, Sep.2011.

I'm surprised that there are no comments here, so I'll just say that this is an amazing amusement park ride (475 fpm for 1/2 mile), and, while it's not quite as safe as Disneyland, for the Class 5 boater, this provides an unusually good thrill-to-risk ratio, at normal levels. Unfortunately the photo on the main page is kind of hard to figure out, so don't go just by that! Three thrilling drops (plus a high dam at high water) will redline your fun meter!

Jerry's face says it all!

The .15 mile section the river drops
over 300 feet. There are narrow
sluces and chutes big enough for a
boater to slide down at high velocity
before punching the nasty holes that
wait at the bottom of every drop.

Short but fun run in the Adirondack's of upstate NY.

Fun slide!

This is a photo of the bottom of the man-made slide at the top of the Eagle section. This is what it looks like when they are not releasing water. Be careful.

Marty Murphy demonstrates the spectacular entry into the Eagle Section of the Beaver River.

You go screaming down river left where a rock awaits you at the bottom. But just as you tense up thinking you going to slam into it. The hole at the bottom shoots you to the right. Very Cool Rapid, Very Cool indeed!
