Running the Idaho section of the river (4 miles) includes minor Class I rapids much of the way and features two park and plays spots for advanced kayakers. Less experienced paddlers can enjoy this section in the summer, but should wait until spring runoff is complete and/or the gates at Post Falls Dam have closed.
There are two major rapids: Corbin Wave (15,000+ cfs) at the upstream point of Corbin Park and Trailer Park Wave (3,500- 7,500 cfs) further upstream. These park and play spots are popular amongst the region’s leading paddling enthusiasts.
