About This Access Site
Cedar Creek is a large river system in Grays Harbor County, Washington, classified as a Stream Order 6 waterway with significant flow characteristics. This take-out site is located on a creek that drains a 1,596 square mile watershed and maintains an average flow of nearly 99 cubic feet per second with an average velocity of 2.68 feet per second. The creek has an overall gradient of 17.9 feet per mile, indicating moderate to steep terrain typical of Pacific Northwest coastal streams.
Whitewater paddlers using this take-out should be prepared for dynamic water conditions. With an average velocity of 2.68 feet per second and a significant gradient, Cedar Creek presents conditions suitable for intermediate to advanced boaters. The creek's substantial drainage area and consistent flow make it a reliable paddling destination, though water levels and conditions will vary seasonally. The takeout location is positioned to serve as an exit point for downstream paddlers completing runs on Cedar Creek.
Paddlers should note the creek's characteristics when planning trips: the elevation change of over 1,100 feet across the system creates varied conditions, and the large drainage area means the creek responds to rainfall and seasonal runoff. Access to parking, facilities, and specific site amenities at this particular take-out should be confirmed locally before your trip.
