The rivers for whitewater rafting and kayaking here in Washington are often tougher than in other states, so better not forget that many runs in this state are not easy.

    Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are lots of good spots for that around here. There's camping available near Trout Creek. A bit of exercise and just hanging out with mother nature will have you coming back for more. The wild scenery of the Northern Cascade Range
is great. This is a short paddling stretch so it's not like you're gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch. There are no other stretches to paddle along Trout Creek than the to National Forest Sky stretch.
