    matter, this area has a large number of paddling places. If you hurry you can run this section in a day but why not make it an overnighter, so why not pack your camp stove too. The river winds through the Central Cascade Range and you get great scenery. The nearby hotels are a
bit away from the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby.
