This is a great class II section of water with multiple long, splashy rapids. There are gorgeous deep pools perfect for swimming and playing in the water during break times and it dives below the highway more than other sections giving you a more wilderness feel with less highway noise. A wonderful way to spend a nice relaxing day with the family!

Slow moving flat water with a few small riffles and waves.

Kayak on calm water

Class II: Novice/Beginner

Faster moving water with medium sized waves and a few easily avoided obstructions. Some maneuvering required.

Two one person rafts on fast moving water

Class III: Intermediate

Fast moving water with high irregular waves, narrow passages, holes, strong currents, and obstructions. Precise maneuvering required.

Long intense rapids with unavoidable waves and holes. Constricted passages require fast maneuvers under pressure. Scouting is necessary the first time and highly recommended after that as well.

Rafting on intense white water rapids

FUN RAFTING EXPERIENCE

Tripadvisor

We had a blast! This was our family first rafting adventure and so glad we went with Bigfoot! The staff was so knowledgable of the area and the water was so clean and fun to get right in! It was so nice to see the native Americans also working on the river to preserve its natural and pristine quality. I would definitely do this again.

Super fun trip. It was our first time rafting and we had a blast. I chose this company because it had good reviews and it was right next door to the cottages we were staying in. Our guide was awesome. Sam was so nice and made us feel at ease. We felt safe with him. We had a great time and I would definitely recommend this company.

This was a first time for some and a repeat for others, and everyone had an amazing experience. Our guide, Alex, made sure that all 7 of us(regardless of skill level) thoroughly enjoyed our trip. Great rapids with plenty of down time in between for swimming and cliff jumping. Wow, can't rate it high enough. Thank you Alex- hope your arm is okay! See you next time.
