Captain Nemo

Waterfall / Large DropClass IV
Captain Nemo

Description

A steep, impressive, bedrock drop.   Scout on river right.    I don't recall why we called it Captian Nemo, but it is too shallow to submarine!

From a small eddy at the lip on river right, drop down a steep, left ward tongue, then cut back hard to the right.    The most common problem in this rapid is when boaters overpower the steep entrance.  They (we) overshoot up onto the left wall and get turned backwards.  A light touch in the entrance helps the cut back to the right, and down the channel.
