You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping
    in your car. There are plenty of other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well. The wonderful Owyhee County scenery and the water flowing gracefully down Owyhee River - North Fork are reasons enough to come here and paddle. No matter if you're whitewater rafting
