Description
Take Out rapid marks the end of the Elk Creek run, featuring a complex exit with multiple boulder-choked channels that require precise navigation. Paddlers should be prepared for tight technical moves between rocks and potential pinning hazards, with the primary line typically requiring a careful approach from river right to avoid scattered mid-stream obstructions.
