Description

Take Out marks the final stretch before the confluence with the French Broad River, characterized by a broad, shallow approach with potential for rock dodging and route selection. Paddlers should be prepared for potential low-water conditions and scattered boulder gardens that can create unpredictable hydraulics, particularly during late summer flows.
