Lava Falls Rapid, probably the roughest rapid in the Grand Canyon, about a mile downstream from Toroweap. I'm guessing the water level was about 15,000 cfs since it was a little low to run the left side but the right side was big. We saw several rafts go through on the right side.
There is a trail from the rim down to the rapid, a mile or so downstream from Toroweap. A road goes out there. I walked/scrambled down there a few years ago. Might do it again but it takes another day at Toroweap. It's not a quick hike.
