Description
The Put In rapid marks the entry point to the lower gorge section of Skookum Creek, characterized by a complex boulder garden that requires precise boat positioning and careful route selection. Paddlers should be prepared for tight technical moves between large rocks and potential hydraulics, with minimal margin for error due to the confined nature of the creek and potential for wood or undercut hazards.
