Description

Put In rapid marks the entry point into Jasper Creek's Narrows section, characterized by a tight, technical entrance between two large boulders that create a challenging pinning hazard. Paddlers must execute a precise left-to-right move to avoid the undercut rock on river left and the shallow shelf that can trap boats, with minimal margin for error in the constricted channel.
