Description
Take Out is the terminal rapid before reaching the Wanaque Reservoir, characterized by a shallow, rocky descent with potential debris and unpredictable water levels. Paddlers should be prepared for tight maneuvering between scattered rock gardens and potential strainers, with minimal room for error near the property line transition point. Navigation requires careful boat control and precise line selection to avoid potential pin hazards.
