Before you go
- Use the parking pin as the arrival point and confirm access before committing.
- Respect posted rules, preserve restrictions, and any no-entry areas near dams or mills.

- Pack out trash and leave village, preserve, or trail access unobstructed.
- If water force or footing feels wrong, keep it to a viewing stop.
