Description

Take Out is the terminal rapid of the Sovern Run section, marking the end of the run with a complex confluence of water flows and potential hazard zones. Paddlers should be prepared for potential debris and shifting currents as the river transitions to its lower gradient, with particular attention needed to navigate around potential rock obstacles near the takeout point.
