Easier Take Out

Just below the Steel Bridge is a pool. The exit of this pool is an island, to use this take out go over to the right channel, and catch a one boat eddy where an old road once entered the river just downstream of where the the current picks up after the pool.

If you don't have anyone with you who knows this spot, it is worth marking during the shuttle, or just taking out at the Steel Bridge, it would be a real pain to miss the eddy. Once on shore, the old road leads back up to the Steel Bridge.

How much of this road you can drive vs walk depends on the condition of the road and wherewithal of your vehicle and driver.
