Description
Take Out rapid marks the end of the Sunol run on Alameda Creek, characterized by a series of low-water boulder gardens and potential debris from local runoff. While typically more of a navigational challenge than a technical whitewater feature, paddlers should be aware of potential strainers and shifting rock placement, especially during low flow periods. Scout carefully and be prepared for potential portage or walk-around options depending on current water conditions.
