Pearce Ferry Rapid, Colorado River, Arizona
View Original Description
Pearce Ferry Rapid (unrunnable; class VI on the International Scale of River Difficulty) is at Colorado River Mile 280.8 just down river from Pearce Ferry.
This rapid was created in 2007 when the level of Lake Mead went below 1138 feet. Lake Mead was over 70 feet deep here in 2000. This rapid is formed by the Colorado River running full force into a hillside. It is a must-scout for any river runners continuing to the next take-out on Lake Mead at South Cove. It is currently considered to be unrunnable.
