Take Out

This take-out access point on Little Beaver Creek serves paddlers completing whitewater runs in Columbiana County, Ohio. Little Beaver Creek is a medium-sized stream with a drainage area of 599 square miles and an average flow of approximately 38 cubic feet per second. The creek maintains a very gentle gradient with minimal elevation change, making it suitable for recreational paddling rather than technical whitewater. The take-out location is positioned to allow paddlers to exit the water after floating downstream on what is generally a peaceful, slow-moving creek experience.

Paddlers using this take-out should be aware that the creek's average velocity of 0.82 feet per second indicates a leisurely current. The relatively flat terrain and low gradient suggest this section offers an easy, relaxing paddling experience appropriate for beginners and families. Given the creek's substantial drainage area and consistent flow, water levels are generally stable, though seasonal variations may affect paddling conditions during drought or flood periods.

As a whitewater take-out specifically, this access point is designed for paddlers to safely exit their boats after running the upstream sections. Paddlers should coordinate shuttle logistics before launching, as this is a take-out location rather than a launch point. The site's location in Columbiana County places it in northeastern Ohio near the Pennsylvania border.
