Trip Report

Reporteralan smith

This rapid is known as the 'Falls of the Red River', more like a long slide consisting of two drops.
Another no name rapid, part of the narrows section. I call it portage left becuase it looks like a lot of people have portaged to left based on all the red canoe paint on the rocks. Very runnable, class III skills needed, a good brace is helpful, requires lots of navigation to get around the rocks.
