Put In

Put In is the initial entry point for the Ponca to Kyles section of the Buffalo River, marking the start of a challenging 10.6-mile whitewater run. While specific technical details are limited, paddlers should be prepared for the transition from flatwater to moving water and carefully assess initial river conditions and their chosen line. As with any river put-in, situational awareness and a thorough scout of entry and initial river characteristics are critical for a safe launch.
