Description
Take-Out marks the end of the Elkhorn Creek run, characterized by a complex series of hydraulics and potential obstructions near the confluence with the Little North Santiam. Paddlers should carefully scout the rapid for any shifting debris or unexpected riverbed changes that could impact boat navigation. Limited beta exists on this specific section, so a careful approach and willingness to portage if needed are recommended.
