Description
Put In is the starting point for the upper Cheat River section, featuring a straightforward entry with minimal technical challenges. Paddlers should be aware of potential shallow areas and scattered rocks near the launch, which can require precise maneuvering during lower water levels. While not a highly complex rapid, careful route selection and standard river reading skills are recommended.
