Bridal Veil

Bridal Veil is a good sized slide with an evil hole and is actually the exit to long Gaunlet rapid. When considered together, it could be consider one class V- rapid, but it's usually thought of as separate. It is scouted (and portaged) from the left bank. From the river left set-up eddy there is a small but sticky river wide hole to punch. While the top hole looks harmless, people have swum out of it and ended up swimming the entire drop. The standard line down Bridal Veil is to punch the top hole about 5 feet off the left bank, then hug the left bank and boof over the left corner of the hole at the bottom. While the middle line has been run, it is generally avoided because it feeds directly into the meat of the hole.

In case of emergency there is a trail out of the gorge at Bridal Veil on river right.
