Two Mile Bar is an alternate put-in on the Stanislaus River located approximately 1. 5 miles downstream of the main Goodwin Dam put-in, accessible via a quarter-mile hike down a dirt road from the Two Mile Bar Recreation Area.

This access point allows paddlers to bypass the difficult portage around Mr.

Toad's Wild Ride (a Class IV+ rapid), making it ideal for rafters or those seeking to avoid that hazardous section while still accessing the Class III rapids downstream including Upper Pinball, Haunted House, and Air Mattress.
