sleeping bag too. The North Fork confluence to Salmon River section is the only paddling section along Wooley Creek. A bit of exercise and spending some quality time in nature are great attractions for lots of people. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to
drive a short distance then no problem but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car.
