Washington whitewater - Squire Creek, Northern Cascade Range, Snohomish County

Snohomish county, Squire Creek Road to dowstream section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS V     3 miles
  If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Washington you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so you'd better keep in mind that quite a few of the sections here are not easy. This stretch is short so better bring some good walking shoes. No matter if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are lots of good places for that around here. The Squire Creek Road to dowstream stretch is the only paddling stretch along Squire Creek. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, and if you make reservations in advance you're
    all set. The nature scenery of Snohomish County and the playfulness of the water beats anything. The Squire Creek Road to dowstream section of Squire Creek is 3 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class V section. Getting your paddling muscles activated
and just being out on the river for a while will make you glad you came. Whitewater paddling here in the Northern Cascade Range is a great experience. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp.
