Packrafting the Prettiest River in Washington? | Dosewallips River
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 жов 2024
- We had a little rainfall which helped raise the water levels so myself and a group of packrafters could run the Dosewallips River on the Olympic Peninsula. This is a Class II/III run with the opportunity for Class IV if you go a little past the put-in.
This is an absolutely beautiful river to packraft or kayak, and I highly recommend it. We also got treated to a herd of elk walking across the river in front of us (shows how shallow the water is).
I can't wait to run the Dosewallips River again, and maybe do the Class IV section!

Wow the color of that water and the scenery are insane!
It's an awesome river!
Thanks for the trip! I need to get a pack raft.
Beautiful vid and river! Thank you for the share
Of course! The rivers around here are awesome and are all very fun to run
Do you happen to know what CFS it was when you ran it ? or the date, I'm guessing just before you made this video "Jun 21, 2023"
looks like a perfect time to run it !!!
My girlfriend was doing field work up in the Olympics from that river a few summers ago, they got fully smoked out from the fires and had to bail. I was totally concerned so a friend and I backpacked a resupply up the trail to meet them as they were hiking out. First time up that way, I'll never forget how gorgeous the upper river was!!
We ran it on June 17, 2023 and on paper it was really low. American Whitewater does that section in feet instead of cfs and all of us were slightly worried the flow rate wouldn't work out. But it did end up being just about perfect, the last 1.5 miles we were butt scraping but all the rapids were prime!
Where did you put in at?
Oh geez now I gotta try to remember. We finished at Dosewallips State Park, and put in 7 or so miles up? I believe it was on NF-2620
