I found this river on google maps and wondered if anyone ever kayaked it. Sure enough you make it look easy. I would have been out of breath. Great video.

For those who don't get what the risk is, it is extreme. If either paddler gets stuck in a hole, or pins, the other paddler is around the corner and down another drop before he can stop IF there is an eddy. There's no way to get back upstream. There's no chance to even throw a rope. That kind of intensely boiling funny water suggests great water depth (50'feet?) in the inner canyon no kind of PFD will keep a swimmer afloat enough to keep from flush drowning. Major pucker factor!

Hello people from the future! The rapid @3:40 has changed considerably. It was called triple drop at the time of this video, however, it has since become a double drop, or a a single drop with a long slide depending on how you look at it.

Someday, maybe on a low flow. I so love this video. I can close my eyes and I am on the river again. I have been seeking such a video, long without music besides the sound of the water.

Its a class IV run in a deep canyon so there are inherent dangers as always is the case with whitewater beyond that its a fairly straightforward run.

Wow I was looking for information about the Memekay Main for fossils that I have from my Grandmother My grandparents had a cattle ranch by the old air strip when was growing up. I am amazed at how you control your kayaks in crazy rapids like that! Makes me want to give it a try 😁
