This is a whitewater take-out access point on the Des Plaines River in Cook County, Illinois. As a take-out location, it serves as an exit point for paddlers completing a whitewater run on this river system. The Des Plaines River offers whitewater paddling opportunities in the Chicago metropolitan area, making this access point valuable for kayakers and canoeists finishing their downstream runs. Given its classification as a take-out rather than a launch point, paddlers will typically arrive at this location after paddling from an upstream put-in.
