Class III (V) White Salmon, WA

This section of the White Salmon River is a classic intermediate run that flows throughout the year, and has become one of the most popular commerical raft runs in Washington due to dependable flows through the summer. From Gilmer Creek, near the town of B Z Corner, to Buck Creek, the Lower White Salmon is designated as Wild & Scenic. Along this stretch of the river, glacial headwaters are supplemented by seeps and springs along the canyon walls, sustaining a cold but consistent flow of water year round. The Lower White Salmon's rapids, waterfalls, and abrupt drops can challenge even the most advanced boaters. (American Whitewater & U.S. Forest Service)
