Washington whitewater - Sullivan River, Pend Oreille County

Pend Oreille county, Mill Pond to North Fork Sullivan section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS II     1.3 miles
  The average Washington whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be harder to run than those in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable for beginners. The beautiful scenery of Washington and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream are reasons enough to come here and paddle. The Mill Pond to North Fork Sullivan section of Sullivan River in Pend Oreille County is 1.3 miles long and has been rated as a class II section by American Whitewater. A bit of exercise and a chance to spend some
    time outdoors have a lot of people coming here. This is an extremely short section so it's not like you're gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch. The Mill Pond to North Fork Sullivan stretch is one of a few paddling stretches in this river system. There's camping available
near Sullivan River. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are not so many other good rivers for that around here.
