North Santiam River (OR)
| The North Santiam is loaded with 1 & 2 class rapids and is a fun river to spend the day. I floated from Santiam Park to Stayton and was on the water for about 6 hours. There are numerous put-in and take-out points along the river, so float times can be adjusted. Bigger whitewater fun can be had between Packsaddle Park and Santiam Park. The river is dotted with houses the whole length of the river but they are far enough apart to still give the river a remote feel. There are several diversion dams as you get closer to Stayton so keep your eyes open for them. Overall it's a great river to relaxes, work on canoeing skills, and catch a few fish. |
