The beautiful scenery of Oregon and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream are reasons enough to come here and paddle. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car.

    river where you can camp. This stretch of Umpqua River - North in Douglas County is 34.5 miles long and has been rated as a class II(III) section by American Whitewater. A section like this is is of course not run in a single day, so it looks like you will be camping out. The put-in
