This is a whitewater take-out access point on Antietam Creek in Washington County, Maryland, located near the Potomac River confluence. The site serves as an exit point for paddlers completing whitewater runs on Antietam Creek, which is a popular destination for kayakers and canoeists seeking moderate to challenging whitewater paddling. The take-out location at these coordinates provides access to the lower section of the creek where water conditions transition toward the Potomac River.
Paddlers using this take-out should be prepared for whitewater conditions typical of Antietam Creek, which features rapids, some technical sections, and varying water levels depending on recent rainfall and dam releases. This site is primarily suited for intermediate to advanced paddlers who have completed upstream paddling sections. Typical craft used on Antietam Creek include kayaks and canoes suitable for moving water and rocky terrain.
