Description
The Take-out rapid at PA Rt. 97 marks the end of the Rock Creek section, featuring a moderate gradient with scattered boulder gardens and potential pin hazards. Paddlers should carefully scout the final approach, paying close attention to water levels and potential debris, with a recommended line that navigates between mid-stream rocks and potential undercut formations.
