Description
Put In marks the starting point for one of the most remote and challenging multi-day wilderness runs in California, requiring careful boat positioning and route selection through a complex entry. Paddlers must navigate a tight entrance with potential for pinning or broaching, and should scout thoroughly before committing to the initial drop.
