Split Rock Falls

Split Rock Falls is a signature drop on the Boquet River, located just downstream of the Highway 9 Bridge. At most flows suitable for the upstream sections, the falls are steep and powerful, requiring a high and committing flow to run safely, and most paddlers take out above the falls. Split Rock itself is runnable down to relatively low flows and sees many of its descents at these levels. In addition to its whitewater appeal, the falls are a popular swimming and recreation spot during the summer months, with large pools at the base attracting swimmers when flows are low.
