Washington whitewater - Sullivan River, Pend Oreille County

Pend Oreille county, North Fork Sullivan to Highway 31 section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS V     1.7 miles
  This section of Sullivan River is 1.7 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class V section. The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master in this state than those in other states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable for beginners. A good workout and just hanging out with mother nature will make you glad you came. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way around here you won't find a large number
    of other rivers. There are a few other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well. This is a pretty short section so no need to bring snacks. The campgrounds here at Sullivan River are pretty good. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to
one, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. The scenic beauty of Washington and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream beats anything.
