Heres a video of the first and arguably the biggest rapid on the Canyon Harrington section at 190 cms.. Were are most likely going to run it between 140-160 cms.

As stated in the other thread, I'll b there.

Is this a 4Fun run, or a SuperStar run?  Will there be any serious play, or are we just a group of fun-loving boaters running some rapids?
