Description
Take Out is a notorious flat water exit point where paddlers must carefully navigate a narrow, debris-strewn channel near the George Washington Parkway takeout. The rapid presents no significant whitewater challenges but requires precise maneuvering to avoid shoreline obstacles and potential hazards from boat traffic and current patterns near the Potomac River confluence.
