This section of Snake River in Idaho is 1.6 miles long and it is classified as a class V+ section by American Whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Idaho is often tougher than elsewhere, so don't forget that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable for beginners. The nature scenery of Idaho and the playfulness of the water have people coming here. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. There are some good stretches to paddle in this river system, the Milner Dam to Power Plant
stretch is one of them. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this area has a pretty small number of paddling rivers. This section is quite short so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times. If you're coming from
Burley it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick.
