About This Access Site
This is a take-out access point on the North Fork of the American River located in Placer County, California. As a whitewater take-out site, it serves as an exit point for paddlers completing runs on this popular northern California whitewater river. The North Fork American is known for its scenic canyon setting and moderate to challenging whitewater conditions. Boaters should be aware that this is specifically a take-out location, meaning it is designed for exiting the water rather than launching, so shuttling arrangements are typically necessary for running this section of river.
