About This Access Site
This is a take-out access point on Scotts Creek in Jackson County, North Carolina, designed for paddlers finishing a whitewater run. As a take-out location, this site serves as the endpoint for kayakers and canoeists coming downstream. The creek in this region offers whitewater paddling opportunities suitable for intermediate to advanced paddlers seeking Class II-III rapids typical of western North Carolina mountain streams. Being a dedicated take-out rather than a launch point, this access is essential for planning shuttle runs on Scotts Creek.
