Jones Creek Forest Camp to Boatramp section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II-IV 16.6 miles
The natural beauty of Oregon and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream have people coming here. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Oregon is often tougher than elsewhere, so keep in mind that rivers here are not as easy as elsewhere. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. The river winds through the Coast Ranges and you get great scenery. If you have the time you can make this a two day trip, so why not pack your camping stuff too. 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. The Jones Creek Forest Camp to Boatramp stretch of Wilson River in Oregon is 16.6 miles long and it is classified as a class II-IV section by American Whitewater. The Jones Creek Forest Camp
to Boatramp stretch is one of many paddling stretches in this river system. Getting some good exercise and just being out on the river for a while will have you coming back for more. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are lots of good rivers for that around here.
