Hanging Gardens, Moguls

HazardClass IV+0.00000, 0.00000

Description

A  rapid of note in this section after Pendleton is the Hanging Gardens or ' U-turn'. There is a small pool on the left and a big cliff visible downstream on river right. The line is to go just right of a pillow at the top, then eddy out behind a large boulder and use it to ferry over to river right. Punch the hole to avoid the undercuts at the bottom.  At higher levels or if there's wood you can run straight down the right the whole way.

The next rapid after a big pool is the classic Mogul Field.  It starts off with a sweet 5-foot boof, then a series of offset pillows and shelves. After that is ' Right Left Right' and ' Little West Prong'
