Description
Put In is a transition rapid marking the starting point for the Thompson River run, characterized by an initial boulder-choked entry that requires precise boat placement and careful navigation. Paddlers should be prepared for potential submerged rocks and variable water levels that can dramatically change the rapid's character and difficulty. While specific difficulty ratings are not established, careful scouting and familiarity with local water conditions are recommended.
