Striding Giant Rapids

The Striding Giant Rapids was the name for a sections of rapids located around a petrified giant in the middle of the River Rauvin, just downriver from Everlund.

Geography
Striding Giant Rapids was located just out of sight and to the west of Everlund in the Rauvin Vale.

Description
The Striding Giant was a statue (in fact, a petrified hill giant) of a giant stepping through the waters of the river. The statue caused a "snag" in the river. The water in that area was considered rough; in the spring, runoff made the water deeper and more treacherous.

History
Rumors of a terrible fate for anyone who disturbed the Striding Giant ensured that the obstacle was not removed from the river.
