Whitewater Packraft - South Fork Snoqualmie River: Twin Falls to 436th Street

370 CFS - low flow that is great for eddying practice and building skills/experience

  • Road suitable for all vehicles

370 CFS which was not pushy at all. Many exposed boulders so lots of opportunities for catching midstream eddies. This river at these low flows would be great for recent whitewater course graduates to get more experience, although a swim might be bumpy. We saw no meaningful wood hazard on this trip other than at the weir but there's definitely the potential for it, so I'd be nervous about inexperienced boaters at higher and faster flows unless there was recent info confirming it's clear. We ran the weir, a member in the group knew the line to take from having recently done it before and everyone was confident they could do it. Took us 1 hour 40 minutes from put-in to take-out without hurrying.

Note - parking was limited at the takeout, so should probably be a trip for smaller groups only.
