Trout Creek can be used as an alternative put-in for this run, or those looking to make a longer run can continue on the Lower Wind to the Columbia River
Logistics: From Highway 14 along head north into Carson on Wind River Road. To reach the take-out continue to mile 3.0 on Wind River Road and turn left onto High Bridge Road. Head 0.1 mile and turn right on Detour Road. Detour road winds 0.7 mile down the river. To reach the put-in, head back out to High Bride Road and continue north to Stabler.
