Take Out

This is a whitewater take-out access point on the Sturgeon River, a Lake Michigan tributary located in Nahma Township, Delta County, Michigan. The site serves paddlers completing whitewater runs on the Sturgeon, which is known for its moderate rapids and scenic flow through Michigan's Upper Peninsula. As a dedicated take-out location, this site provides an exit point for kayakers and canoeists finishing their downriver trips on the Sturgeon system.

The Sturgeon River offers a mix of Class II and III whitewater depending on water levels and seasonal conditions. Paddlers should be aware that this is a tributary system that can experience significant variation in water flow, particularly during spring snowmelt and after heavy rainfall. The area is typical of Upper Peninsula river access, with limited commercial development and a natural forest setting.

Before paddling, boaters should check current water conditions and flow rates, as the Sturgeon's character changes substantially based on discharge levels. This take-out serves as the endpoint for multi-hour or multi-day paddling adventures on the river system.
