Class II-III Truckee River, CA

From Truckee for 10 miles to the Little Truckee confluence at Boca, the river is mostly fun class II with some flat spots, although boaters encounter a class III rocky drop before downtown, and a class III boulder garden just below the Truckee sewage treatment plant. Despite an interstate highway right along the river, the surrounding mountains are beautiful, so this is a good run if you are in the area. (Nevada Department of Conservation & Natural Resources)
