Ruhenstroth Dam Access serves as the primary take-out point for whitewater rafters floating the East Fork Carson River, located just upstream of Ruhenstroth Dam in Douglas County, Nevada.

The Forest Service-managed facility includes a double-riser vault toilet, large multi-lot parking area, and take-out ramp, though the ramp was partially damaged by flooding in 2006 and requires regular maintenance; the site has experienced vandalism issues since its 2002 construction.

Safety concerns exist at the dam itself, and the take-out area is used year-round by local day-use visitors, making it an important but sometimes problematic access point for the popular spring float season.
