Red Creek Rapid

Red Creek Rapid is the only named rapid on the Flaming Gorge tailwater (A and B sections combined). Formed at the mouth of Red Creek on river-right, where the side-canyon debris fan constricts the Green and stacks the channel into a defined wave train. At standard tailwater flows it reads as a clean Class III; at high dam releases the features get larger and pushier, and the eddy lines below the rapid stiffen.
