Description
The Black Road Put-in serves as the standard launch point for the North Branch Lamoille, offering paddlers immediate access to the river but requiring careful navigation through an initial rocky entry with potential shallow spots and scattered debris. While not a technically challenging rapid, boaters should be prepared for potential underwater obstructions and maintain a vigilant line through the initial put-in sequence, using careful eddy selection and precise boat positioning.
