The little known Cispus River

In the very heart of Southern Washington State lies a river that most folks have never heard of.

Washington is a state graced with an abundance of clear running rivers that originate from the Cascade Mountains. Moisture laden storms from the north Pacific pound these mountains for a majority of the year creating a vast watershed envied by most other parts of the world.

In one of our common ditch the bikes at the 'take-out', then drive up to the 'put-in', paddle down to the bikes, then ditch the kayaks, then ride back to the truck scenarios, we paddled a 7 mile stretch of the Cispus River.






The unique setting of this river makes it extremely remote feeling and incredibly beautiful. Below is a picture of camp after a great day on the river.


River of dreams
