    it is classified as a class II section by American Whitewater. 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 lots of rivers here are not for beginners. This river system
is full of great paddling stretches, the Granite Falls to Jordan stretch is just one of them. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car.
