CLASS II     18 miles
  This stretch of White River in Crosby County is 18 miles long and has been rated as a class II section by American Whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Texas are easier than the national norm, so better not forget that quite a few of the sections here are pretty easy. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. There are no other sections to paddle along White River than
    the Crosbyton to White River Res section. Great exercise and just being out on the river for a while have a lot of people coming here. The natural beauty of Texas and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water are reasons enough to come here and paddle. If you have the time you
can make this a two day trip, so pack your sleeping bag.
