Elbow River, Alberta, Canada
About 30min from where I was living in Calgary is the elbow river. This was my after work run for a good few months while I was based in Calgary.
It is a class 4 run with 2 rapids getting near the class 5 range. It begins with a nice waterfall which most people put in below. From there the next major rapid is called The Notch. This is a nasty undercut shoot with lots of wood in it. It has claimed a few lives over the years so it is also often walked although it is not overly hard. After that is a few KMs of class 3 before you get to a solid little slide with a nice hole at the base. This is the last major rapid before the class 3 run out.
