Description
The Barnett Canoe Launch provides an easy river access point for paddlers entering the Clarion River near Portland Mills, with a gentle put-in that allows for straightforward entry into the river. While not a technical rapid itself, the launch serves as a critical entry point for navigating the subsequent river section, offering a smooth transition from land to water for canoeists and kayakers. Paddlers should be mindful of potential shallow areas and seasonal water levels when using this access point.
