Description

Historically, many boaters would take out at the highway, forgoing the final series of gradient. Less adventurous boaters (or those who may have 'bitten off a bit more than they could chew' and who have been somewhat beaten-up by the river on their chosen day) may still wish to use this spot to get out.

Most boaters will want to continue under the highway and the railroad bridges (through random small ledges and wrapping waves) for a fantastic finish to the run.
