General Description

This section of the Lepreau is a great high water run. When everything else is flooded out or too dangerous this section is just right. Loads of fun class 2-3 boogie water can be found with two larger rapids with easy class 3/4 lines found on river left channels (see below). This section has been paddled at 1.2m and 1.8m on the gauge. It is speculated that this section is mint around 1.4m and above.
