Description
Put In is a transitional rapid marking the start of the Boone Fork whitewater run, characterized by a relatively straightforward entry point with minimal technical challenges. Paddlers should be aware of potential shallow rock gardens and the need for precise boat positioning at the launch zone, which can become more complex during low water conditions.
