Description
Put In rapid on Swatara Creek is a relatively straightforward section with minimal technical challenges, primarily featuring a gentle gradient and scattered small rocks. Paddlers should be aware of potential shallow areas and submerged debris, particularly during low water conditions, and maintain a clean line through the central channel to avoid potential boat contact with underwater obstacles.
