Description
The Park-and-Ride Lot serves as a critical take-out point for paddlers completing the Trowbridge Road to Indian River section of the Sturgeon River. While not a technical rapid itself, this location provides essential access and logistical support for river runners navigating this stretch of Michigan whitewater. Paddlers should ensure they have appropriate shuttle arrangements and verify parking availability, especially during peak seasonal use.
