A bit of exercise and just hanging out with mother nature will make you glad you came. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. The Twin Falls to FR 88 stretch of Lewis River - North Fork is 3 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class II-III section of whitewater. Whitewater paddling here in the Northern Cascade Range is a great experience. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Washington is often
    tougher than elsewhere, so keep in mind that lots of rivers here are not for beginners. This is not the only paddling stretch in this river system, there are others too. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are lots of good spots for that around here. The nearby
hotels are a bit away from the river, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. This is a pretty short section so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times.
