Description

The State Route 6 Bridge Take-Out marks the end of a scenic but remote stretch of the West Fork Chehalis, serving as a critical exit point for boaters completing this section. While not a technical rapid itself, the take-out requires careful navigation to avoid potential hazards like shallow rocks, swift current near the bridge, and limited staging area for shuttle vehicles and gear.
