Description
Take Out marks the end of the Lower Pigeon River run, featuring a complex series of hydraulics and potential debris depending on water levels. Paddlers should be prepared for potential boat extraction challenges and scout the exit carefully, as the rapid's name suggests the practical need to exit the river at this point. Navigation requires careful maneuvering to avoid potential strainers or unexpected obstacles near the takeout zone.
