Description
The Put In rapid marks the traditional start of the Upper Wilson Creek run, serving as an immediate warm-up for paddlers entering the gorge. While not particularly challenging, the rapid features a straightforward center line with some small boulder gardens and potential pour-overs that require careful boat positioning and reading water. Paddlers should scout from river right and be prepared for potential wood or shifting rocks during different water levels.
