states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that many of the sections here are safe for beginners. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way there are lots of good rivers for that around here. For all you camping people there are campgrounds
nearby. If you'll be staying in a hotel you're in luck, lodging is available very near the river, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. Getting some good exercise and just being out on the river for a while are sure to keep you coming back for more.
