Description
Put In rapid marks the start of this Silver Creek run, featuring a gentle entry with scattered rock gardens that demand precise boat positioning. Paddlers should be prepared for potential shallow spots and small ledges that can create momentary hydraulics, especially at lower water levels. While not technically complex, the rapid requires attentive navigation to avoid potential pin spots among the initial boulder field.
