About This Access Site
Put In is a whitewater access point on Rock Creek in the Nehalem drainage system located in Columbia County, Oregon. This put-in serves as an entry point for paddlers looking to run the whitewater sections of Rock Creek. The site provides access to a creek that offers whitewater paddling opportunities typical of coastal range streams in northwest Oregon. Paddlers should be aware of current conditions and water levels, which can vary significantly based on recent rainfall and seasonal flows. The area is part of the Nehalem River watershed system, which is known for its steep gradient and dynamic water conditions.
