Description
Take Out marks the end of the Tuolumne Meadows river section, transitioning paddlers from the upper reaches to the reservoir approach. The rapid itself does not appear to have specific navigational challenges, likely serving more as a landmark and exit point for river runners. Boaters should be prepared for potential flat water and take appropriate precautions when approaching the reservoir transition.
