The wonderful Cherry County scenery and the cool fresh water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. 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. This is the only paddling section along Snake River. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground.

River is pretty dried up generally; June is when you get the most rain here, and the driest month of the year is January.
