Guide Trap Rapids
Whitewater slots and waves everywhere. Choose the wrong channel or get knocked off course, and you may get stuck on a rock.

After some fancy paddling to slip into the entrance, you need to paddle hard to avoid the boat-devouring Alligator Hole on the bottom right side.
Gums Rapids
A Class III joy ride made ominous because it used to be mistaken for Jaws Rapids.
Jaws Rapids
A quarter mile slice of Class III+ whitewater snaking between water worn granite boulders and tumultuous waves.
