The starting location is a reasonable drive
from Washington, as you can see on the road map further down. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this area has a pretty small number of paddling rivers. This section is quite short so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. Getting a good workout and just
hanging out with mother nature have a lot of people coming here. The wonderful Highland County scenery and the playfulness of the water beats anything. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car.
