Description
Take Out is the final rapid before the confluence with the Elk River, marked by a complex boulder garden requiring precise boat positioning and quick maneuvering between scattered rocks. Paddlers should anticipate multiple route options with potential pin hazards and be prepared to make rapid direction changes to avoid potential obstacles. Line selection is critical here, with the most navigable path not always being the most obvious.
