Put In

Put In is the initial access point for the Copper River's challenging wilderness run, marking the start of a remote and demanding multi-day expedition through rugged Alaskan terrain. Paddlers should be prepared for potential log hazards, shifting channels, and the possibility of braided river conditions that can quickly change navigational options. This launch location requires careful scouting and self-sufficiency, as rescue and support are extremely limited in this isolated stretch of the river.
