Ouleout Creek

Run was short but really scenic. Would be a great beginner spot, especially when nothing else is running. We took out at the KOA campground at the Union Church bridge because the second half looked shallow and boring, based on scouting from rte 88 and from the traditional takeout. This made the run about 1.5 miles total. In the middle there are some nice islands, a couple of very small surfable shelf holes, and some nice big boulders for beginners to practice eddying behind.

Parking at the put in is minimal. Recommend dropping boats at put in and parking on one of the side roads and walking back. Takeout parking is much friendlier.
