Kayak
Over 13,000 CFS the King wave comes in. This wave is awesome. You can throw all wave tricks on this one and it also allows for a great start to your session if you decide to put in at Fall Creek about a ¼ mile upstream with a great 15 foot waterfall. This drop is on private land and cannot be scouted, 4 feet off the right bank and a good boof will keep you smiling all the way to kings which is 5 minutes down stream.
