This section of Pine River in Florence County is 2.2 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class II-IV(V) section.

    are campgrounds nearby. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. This is not the only paddling section in this river system, there are others too. Whether
you're whitewater rafting or kayaking around here you'll find a large number of good places.
