CLASS III-IV     12 miles
  This stretch of Umpqua River - South in Oregon is 12 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class III-IV section of whitewater. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. The beautiful scenery of Oregon and the cool fresh water make the trip here worthwhile. Getting your paddling muscles activated and a chance to spend some time outdoors have a lot of people coming here. 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. This river system is full of great paddling stretches, the Campbell Falls to Three C Rock stretch is just one of them. The rivers for whitewater rafting and kayaking in this state are often tougher than in other states, so don't forget that lots of
rivers here are not for beginners. The wild scenery of the Southern Cascade Range is great. 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. No matter if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking around here you'll find a large number of good places.
