Description

Take Out is a section near the end of the Zoar Valley run where paddlers must carefully navigate out of the gorge and prepare for their exit point. While specific details about this exact rapid are limited, the Cattaraugus Creek's steep gradient and rocky terrain suggest careful route selection and attentive maneuvering are critical in this final stretch of the run.
