Description
Put In is the initial entry point for the challenging Dougan Falls to Salmon Falls gorge section, offering paddlers immediate technical navigation through a tight, boulder-strewn channel. Boaters must carefully scout and select their line, watching for potential pinning hazards and navigating between rocks that can create unpredictable currents and hydraulics.
