About This Access Site
Cresta Powerhouse Take Out is a whitewater take-out access point located on the North Fork Feather River in Butte County, California. This site serves as an exit point for kayakers and canoeists running whitewater sections of the North Fork Feather, one of Northern California's popular paddling destinations. The take-out provides access to boaters completing intermediate to advanced whitewater runs in the area.

As a take-out facility, this site is designed specifically for egress rather than launching. Paddlers typically use this location to exit the river after completing upstream whitewater sections. The North Fork Feather is known for its technical whitewater and scenic canyon passages, making proper take-out access important for trip planning and safety.
