If you've been out of state whitewater rafting and kayaking you might find the rivers here more demanding, so keep in mind that the rivers in this state are less manageable. The wonderful Klamath County scenery and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream make the trip here worthwhile. This stretch has enough mileage for an overnight trip, so go ahead and pack your sleeping bag. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking in this general area you won't find many other paddling rivers. The beauty of the Southern Cascade Range is a great
plus for this river. This section of Trask River in Oregon is 15 miles long and it is classified as a class IV-V section by American Whitewater. 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
