Put In

This is a whitewater put-in access point on the South Fork of the Eau Claire River, a tributary of the Chippewa River system, located in the Town of Foster in Clark County, Wisconsin. The Eau Claire system is known for its whitewater paddling opportunities and attracts kayakers and canoeists looking to run moving water. This particular put-in provides access to the river for paddlers ready to begin their whitewater descent.

As a dedicated whitewater put-in, this site is designed primarily for kayakers and canoeists launching into moving water sections of the South Fork. Paddlers should be prepared for whitewater conditions and have appropriate skills for the river section being run. The site's location in central Wisconsin places it within the scenic driftless region of the state, where the river carves through forested terrain.

Before launching, paddlers should scout current water conditions and flow levels, as whitewater rivers are highly dependent on recent rainfall and seasonal water availability. Check with local paddling communities or river gauge information for the most current conditions on this section of the Eau Claire system.
