Description

Take Out is a transition rapid at the end of the Pine Dells section, characterized by a narrow channel and potential debris accumulation near the takeout point. Paddlers should be alert for potential strainers or fallen timber, and carefully scout the exit route to ensure a clean line and safe egress from the river.
