Description

Put In rapid serves as the entry point for this Spring Creek run, characterized by a straightforward initial drop with minimal technical challenges. Paddlers should be aware of potential shallow rocky sections near the entry and maintain a clean line through the initial current seam. While not a particularly demanding rapid, attentive navigation is recommended to avoid potential boat-contact with streambed obstacles.
