Description

Put In rapid marks the start of the Wassataquoik Stream run, characterized by an initial technical entry with multiple exposed boulder gardens and tight technical moves required to navigate the initial drops. Paddlers should be prepared for potential wood hazards and carefully scout the entry line, as the rapid sets the tone for the challenging downstream gradient and limited access of this remote Maine wilderness waterway.
