Says John Schabarker This stretch of Belt Creek in Montana is 14 miles long and has been rated as a class II-III section by American Whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Montana are easier than the national norm, so better not forget that the rivers in this state are less demanding. The campgrounds here at Belt Creek are pretty good. Getting some good exercise and just hanging out     with mother nature will make you glad you came. This stretch has enough mileage for an overnight trip, so pack your camp stove. The natural beauty of Montana and the playfulness of the water beats anything.
