What is whitewater?
Whitewater refers to moving bodies of water like rivers, streams, and brooks. The current interacts with the stream bed and river features (rocks, sudden drops, incline or gradient) to form interesting and useful water features like eddies, waves, holes, etc. Because such quick-moving water often becomes bubbly and aerated as it frolics along the river bed, it is referred to as “white” water (the bubbles, of course, turning the water white). 2.
