Description
Put In is the initial access point for the Maryland lines at Great Falls, serving as the critical entry to a challenging and technical section of whitewater. Paddlers must carefully navigate the narrow, boulder-strewn launch zone, which requires precise boat placement and immediate commitment to the first drop, with minimal room for error and potentially consequential consequences for missed lines.
