We paddled from the Whitbeck Rapids put in to the Chain of Lakes Rd. but could not find anyone at the adjacent camp to talk about parking permission. It would be good karma for the UP paddlers to post a contact for parking at the above take out. The take out is an eroded, steep sand back that could benefit from a little rip rap which might be a good trade for access.
We ran it as part of an ACA L2 River Canoe Skills Assessment on 8/22/13. It was roughly 475 cfs, pretty boney but also a great place to take new river canoeists to practice. We found everything we needed for teaching which was fortunate, especially in August. Would definitely use this venue again!
