The turnout to fish hatchery section of Sherman Creek in Ferry County is 1 miles long and is a class V section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. The average Washington whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be harder to run than those in other states, so don't forget that a large number of rivers in this state are not easy. The natural beauty of Ferry County and the playfulness of the water will make you feel great. This is a very short section so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times. There are campgrounds |
|
quite near the river where you can camp. 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. A good workout and just being out on the river for a while will make you
| glad you came. This river system has a few good paddling stretches and the turnout to fish hatchery section is one of them. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way this area has a pretty small number of paddling spots.
