McCoy's

Scout from an island on the right. This long rapid starts out with a bang! Most paddlers 'thread the needle,' heading just right of Sattler's Hole, lining up to avoid the notorious Phil's Hole on the left. One great way to screw it up is to shy away from Sattler's just a bit, which will give the intrepid paddler no room to avoid Phil's. After Phil's, big water takes you toward river left. Most paddlers curve around right to catch a tongue down the center of the Horseshoe Hole. Great fun awaits at the end! Baby Face, a play wave at the runout, is an awesome bouncy surf at levels around 1 foot or less.
After McCoy's, take a left at the islands to run the Middle.
