Description
Put In rapid marks the entry point for the Middle Branch Oswegatchie's most challenging section, featuring a tight, technical entry with multiple hidden rock obstacles that demand precise boat positioning. Paddlers should carefully scout the initial drop and be prepared for potential pin hazards in the narrow constriction, with a recommended line hugging the river right to avoid a series of submerged boulders.
