Take Out

Wolverine Creek Take Out is a whitewater access point located in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough of Alaska. This is a take-out site on a significant medium-sized river with a substantial gradient of 293.9 feet per mile, indicating fast-moving whitewater conditions typical of glacial-fed Alaskan streams. The creek drains a watershed of approximately 1990 square miles and drops nearly 5700 feet in elevation over its 19.46-mile length, making it suitable for experienced whitewater paddlers.

The location is positioned about 41 miles upstream from the river mouth, placing it in a more remote section of the watershed. With a stream order of 4, this is considered a medium river system. Paddlers using this take-out should be prepared for challenging whitewater conditions and should have appropriate skill and equipment for fast-moving water. The remote location in Alaska requires careful trip planning, including shuttle arrangements and understanding of local water conditions before putting on the water.
