About This Access Site
American Whitewater Take Out is a designated take-out point on Johns Creek in Craig County, Virginia, serving paddlers completing whitewater runs on this scenic mountain stream. As a take-out location, this site is primarily designed for boaters finishing their paddling trips rather than launching new ones. Johns Creek offers whitewater paddling opportunities in the Appalachian region, with this access point providing a convenient exit point for kayakers and canoeists running the creek's various sections. The take-out provides essential access for paddlers to safely exit the water and retrieve their boats after completing their runs. Given the remote nature of many whitewater access points in Virginia, this location serves an important function for the paddling community exploring this creek system.
