county,
Colt Creek Cabin to White Sand Campground section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS III-IV 12 miles
This stretch of White Sand Creek in Idaho is 12 miles long and it is classified as a class III-IV section by American Whitewater. The wonderful Idaho County scenery and the cool fresh water will make you feel great. The beauty of the Bitterroot Range is a great plus for this river. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp. Getting some good exercise and just hanging out with mother nature are sure to keep you coming back for more. 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. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way this is an area with plenty of places for that. If you've been out of state whitewater rafting and kayaking you might find the rivers here more
demanding, so don't forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. There are some good sections to paddle in this river system, the Colt Creek Cabin to White Sand Campground section is one of them. If you have the time you can make this a two day trip, so go ahead and pack your camp stove.
