If you are looking for a trip with whitewater action, either by raft or kayak, or are simply looking to catch some steelhead, America Outdoors outfitters have you covered on the Wild and Scenic Illinois River!
The Wild and Scenic Illinois River runs from the southeast, across the Coast Range in a northwestern direction to its confluence with the Rogue River near the community of Agness. The Wild Section of the river flows through steep canyons for nearly 29 miles between the confluence of Briggs Creek and Nancy Creek. It has 150 rapids, 11 of which are Class IV and one of which has a most difficult rating of Class V. Still, clear, blue-green pools offer contrast to the whitewater segments of the river and opportunities for catching anadromous fish, including large steelhead.
- Rapids: Class IV - V (Difficult to Expert)
- Classification/Mileage: Wild — 28.7 miles; Scenic — 17.9 miles; Recreational — 3.8 miles; Total — 50.4 miles.
