About This Access Site
Briceburg is a whitewater access point on the Merced River in Mariposa County, California. This site serves as an important put-in and take-out location for paddlers navigating the Merced River's whitewater sections. The access point provides opportunity for kayakers and canoeists to experience the river's flow in this region. As with many whitewater access areas, paddlers should be aware of current conditions and water levels before launching, particularly during seasonal variations.
