About This Access Site
This is a take-out access point on Elk Creek, a tributary of Lake Erie located in Girard Township, Erie County, Pennsylvania. As a designated whitewater take-out, this site is specifically designed for paddlers completing whitewater runs to exit the water. The location serves boaters, kayakers, and canoeists who are paddling downstream on Elk Creek. Being a take-out rather than a launch site, this access point is most useful for those planning multi-segment trips or shuttle runs on the creek.
