Description

Put In rapid marks the starting point for this river section, offering a straightforward entry with minimal technical challenges. Paddlers should be aware of potential submerged rocks near the riverbank and maintain a clean, center-line approach to avoid potential pinning hazards. While not a particularly complex rapid, vigilance and proper boat positioning are recommended during put-in.
