About This Access Site
Last Hurrah is a whitewater access point on Cedar Creek in the Town of Cedarburg, Ozaukee County, Wisconsin. Cedar Creek is a large river system with significant gradient and flow characteristics that make it suitable for whitewater paddling activities. With an average gradient of 17.9 feet per mile and average flows around 99 cubic feet per second, this section of Cedar Creek offers moderate current conditions typical of whitewater environments.
Paddlers using this access point should be prepared for active water conditions. The creek maintains a consistent average velocity of 2.68 feet per second and drops over 1100 feet across its 62-mile length, indicating sustained gradient throughout the system. The drainage area of 1596 square miles means water levels can vary seasonally, and paddlers should check current conditions before launching. This is a designated whitewater access point, suggesting the site has been identified as suitable for kayaks and canoes navigating swift water sections.
The location in Cedarburg provides access to a well-established river system with significant paddling potential. Boaters should be aware that this is an active whitewater environment and come prepared with appropriate skills and safety equipment for moving water paddling.
