Rivers We Raft On

- Spokane River Rafting

- Wenatchee River Rafting

Spokane River Rafting

The Spokane River drains Coeur d'Alene Lake in Idaho. From its headwaters just across the border, it flows down the Spokane River Valley through the city of Spokane and on to the Columbia River. A large volume river, the Spokane River's waters are home to numerous species of fish including rainbow trout. As for the mammals, the riverbanks of the lower section can be home to beavers and raccoons with the hills housing coyotes and deer. Circling overhead can be seen ospreys, hawks, turkey and bald eagles.

The Lower Spokane River is a wonderful one-day rafting trip that runs through the heart of Spokane. However, when you are on the river you feel like you are in the wilderness.

The Lower Spokane River from Downriver Golf Course to Plese Flats is a class II-III+ whitewater. There are two main rapids on this section of river; the Bowl and Pitcher Rapid and the Devil's Toenail Rapid. The put-in for this section is a steep trail but the take-out at Plese Flats is a nice paved ramp with parking, restrooms and picnic areas. There is camping available half way through the route at Riverside State Park Campground.

Location:

Meeting time and location will be established based on time of year and river flows.

Take out will be at Plese Flats. Plese Flats is located down on the Lower Spokane River a few miles down river of the Bowl & Pitcher Camp Ground and Picnic Area.

Wenatchee River Rafting

If staying in Leavenworth, you won't have to go far to find Washington State's most popular river for whitewater rafting. It runs right through town. It is the Wenatchee River.

People from all over the state and elsewhere come to the Wenatchee each season from April through July for spills, chills and thrills. Considered to be a low hazard river, the Wenatchee offers sections of water to suit just about every paddling or rowing skill.

The most popular section is the 19-mile run from Leavenworth to Monitor. Terry Rudnick, in his book Washington Boating and Water Sports, says this about the section:

"Some of this Class III section is very impressive in the spring, with a dozen places where you stand a good chance of getting wet and perhaps half that many spots where you can get separated from your boat in less time than it takes to describe it. Folks have a short distance to get warmed up on this run before the whitewater gets serious. It isn't long before they start the 250-yard-long series of waves called Rock and Roll, with the infamous hole called Devil's Eyeball near its upper end."

The fun continues as you race through rapids named Drunkard's Drop and Snowblind with the highlight of the trip being the huge hole and curler called "Suffocator".

Meeting time and location will be established based on time of year and river flows. Take out will be at Cashmere Riverside Center.
