Tunnel outlet to Highway 34 section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II-V+ 20 miles
The Tunnel outlet to Highway 34 stretch of Bluegrass Creek in Albany / Platte County is 20 miles long and it is classified as a class II-V+ section by American Whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Wyoming is often more difficult than elsewhere, so don't forget that a large number of rivers in this state are not easy. The Tunnel outlet to Highway 34 section is the only paddling section along Bluegrass Creek. Getting some good exercise and just being out on the river for a while are sure to keep you coming back for more. The campgrounds here
at Bluegrass Creek are pretty good. The wonderful Albany / Platte County scenery and the water flowing gracefully down Bluegrass Creek have people coming here. This stretch is long enough for an overnight trip if you take your time, so why not pack your camping stuff too. The Laramie
Mountains scenery is wonderful. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are not so many other good spots for that around here. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set.
