Description
The Put In rapid marks the starting point for this section of the Union River, characterized by a gentle entry with minimal technical challenges. Paddlers can expect a relatively smooth initial descent with scattered small rocks and minimal gradient, making it suitable for beginners transitioning into moving water. While no significant hazards are present, maintaining proper boat positioning and reading the water's surface will help ensure a clean line through this introductory stretch.
