Description
Put In rapid serves as the entry point for the Pound River run, marking the beginning of the river descent with an initial series of small ledges and boulder gardens. Paddlers should be prepared for potential debris and tight maneuvering between rocks, with careful route selection critical in the opening stretch. While not a highly technical rapid, the Put In sets the tone for the river's character and requires immediate attentiveness to navigation.
