"Showers"

Description

From the ballfields Putin, you'll know 'Showers' is coming up when, just over a mile in, the river makes a broad right hand turn and the railroad tracks are very close on river left. As you navigate through a small rock garden, there is a dry ledge on the right. Eddy out here if you want to scout the rapid. At 'Showers' the river funnels into a fast moving wave train with a V-shaped wave-hole at the bottom. Run the rapid to the left or the right of the central V. There are two smaller holes just downstream and a heavy rock garden below the main rapid that paddlers can pick their way through.
