Description
Put-in rapid marks the start of the lower Little North Santiam's most challenging section, with a tight initial entry requiring precise boat positioning to avoid undercut rocks on river left. Paddlers should scout carefully and select a clean line that threads between the initial boulder garden and potential hydraulics near the center channel.
