at a nearby campground. This section is long enough to enjoy a good non stop paddle, it's perfect for a one day trip. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in this state is often easier than elsewhere, so keep in mind that many runs in this state are very easy. You might be into whitewater
rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this area has a large number of paddling spots. 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.
Briefly about the general area: A river like this is too good to miss. Through the summer here at Black River, high temperatures generally get into the 70's. For the period of the moonlight hours it's frequently in the 50's. The winter comes with highs in the 10's, and overnight lows at
Black River during the winter generally drop into the-10's. If you go for the outdoors you'll go for it here in the Gogebic Range. Go for a hike on the Rainbow Falls Trail, and the beauty of mother nature reveals herself at Chippewa Falls. The amount of rain that falls at Black
River is close to the national average; most of the rain falls through June; February meanwhile is the driest month. Very picturesque scenery and fine skiing is what you get at Big Powderhorn Mountain, and a tour to Algonquin Falls will fill your soul with tremendous feelings.
