Description

The Put In rapid on Alameda Creek marks the entry point for a challenging run between Sunol and Niles Junction, with limited documented information about its specific technical characteristics. Due to minimal flow data and infrequent paddling, this section requires careful scouting and local knowledge to navigate safely, with potential unknown obstacles and variable water conditions.
