Design Report for Canon City Whitewater Kayak and Recreation Park in the Arkansas River <br /> • structure. The hole would perform for a reasonable recreation experience for <br /> intermediate moves at 700cfs. The hole would form faster and more dynamic hydraulics <br /> for advanced freestyle moves at flows 1800cfs. <br /> The downstream structure,Nessman, is located at an existing `natural' control section <br /> (Froude Number= 1.0 naturally) in the channel. However,the resulting hydraulic jump <br /> is not sufficient to create a reasonable recreational experience. Placing a pre-cast <br /> structure and excavating some boulders would focus the hydraulic jump and create the <br /> desired wave type feature. The wave feature created by this structure would begin to <br /> form at 250cfs and allow for beginner kayak-surfing experiences. However, at 1800cfs <br /> the Nessman wave would provide for advanced kayak experiences. <br /> • <br /> • 0 12 of 16 <br />
