Description
Take Out marks the terminal rapid before Calderwood Lake, characterized by a broad, flat runout that transitions from whitewater to flat water. While not technically challenging, paddlers should be aware of potential submerged debris and the lake's changing conditions, which can create unexpected wind and wave patterns as they exit the creek.
