About this event

Join us for a scenic fall paddle on the Yakima River from Easton to Thrall. This 8-10 mile Class 1+ section features gentle rapids and riffles, perfect for paddlers with some experience on moving water. In November, the river will likely have lower flows than in spring, but you can still expect a moderate current and cold water temperatures. The air will be crisp, and rain is possible, so come prepared with a dry suit or wetsuit to stay warm and dry. This trip offers beautiful fall scenery, including views of the surrounding mountains, forests, and migrating birds. Since daylight hours are shorter, be sure to bring a headlamp and plan accordingly. This trip is suitable for those who are comfortable in cold conditions and on Class 1+ rivers.
