Gorge Drop 4A

After the first series of abrupt drops the river character changes for the last part of the gorge. Instead of distinct and well-defined drops,
Gorge Drop 4 stretches out as a longish, technical, rocky and pushy rapid that demands superior river reading skills and quick reactions. At lower levels there is a large eddy between the upper and lower halves of this section.

At higher levels the two halves blur into one continuous and quick rapid. Open boats in particular find themselves quickly swept down this rapid teetering on the edge of disaster.
