This is a whitewater put-in access point on the North Fork of the Middle Fork Willamette River in Lane County, Oregon. The site serves as a launching point for paddlers looking to run whitewater sections of this river system. Given the designation as a whitewater put-in, this location is primarily suited for kayakers and canoeists with appropriate skill levels for moving water conditions.
Paddlers using this access should be prepared for whitewater conditions typical of the Willamette's tributary system. The North Fork of the Middle Fork is a smaller river drainage that can offer varying difficulty depending on water levels and seasonal flows. Access to this put-in will provide entry into the whitewater sections downstream from this location.
As with most whitewater access points in Oregon's Cascade region, conditions can change significantly with rainfall and snowmelt. Paddlers should check current water levels and weather conditions before planning their trip and ensure they have appropriate skills and safety equipment for the section they intend to paddle.
