Description

Take Out rapid marks the end of this short but technical Black Creek run, requiring careful navigation through a tight, rocky channel with limited maneuvering space. Paddlers should be prepared for potential pinning hazards and watch for submerged rocks that can quickly alter the intended line, especially during low water conditions.
