When you're paddling down a Coast Ranges river like this one you always get great scenery
along the way too. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, around here you'll find a large number of good spots. The nature scenery of Oregon and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water beats anything. There are so many stretches to paddle
in this river system, the Upper Reaches to Devils Lake Fork stretch is just one of many. 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. A good workout and a chance to spend some time outdoors have people coming from far and near.
