About This Access Site
This take-out site on the Peshtigo River in the Town of Blackwell serves as an exit point for paddlers completing whitewater runs on this northern Wisconsin river. The Peshtigo is known for its dynamic whitewater character, making this take-out an important access point for boaters finishing their journey through the river's rapids and features. Being located in Forest County's relatively remote area, paddlers should plan accordingly with shuttle arrangements, as this is a take-out only site without launching capabilities.
