About This Access Site
This is a take-out access point on the Rio Grande located in Conejos County, Colorado. As a whitewater take-out, this site is primarily designed for paddlers finishing a run down the river rather than launching. The Rio Grande in this region is known for whitewater paddling, so users should expect moving water conditions typical of this section of the river. Take-out points are essential for trip planning, allowing paddlers to safely exit the water and retrieve their boats after completing their run.
