Washington whitewater - Sherman Creek, Ferry County

Ferry county, turnout to fish hatchery section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 



CLASS V     1 miles
  The nature scenery of Washington and the cool fresh water have people coming here. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in this state is often more difficult than elsewhere, so better not forget that many runs in this state are not easy. The turnout to fish hatchery stretch of Sherman Creek is 1 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class V section. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way there are not so many other good spots for that around here. There are some good sections to paddle in this
    river system, the turnout to fish hatchery section is one of them. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem and if you make reservations in advance you're all set. Getting some good exercise and just being out on the river
for a while will make you glad you came. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp. This is a very short stretch so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times.
