About This Access Site
Mackenzie Avenue Bridge serves as a whitewater take-out point on the Arkansas River in Fremont County, Colorado. This location is positioned to receive paddlers coming downstream on the Arkansas, making it a convenient exit point for kayakers and canoeists running whitewater sections in the area. The site's primary function is to provide access for boaters to safely exit the river after their run.
