Yakima River

Cle Elum & Canyon Floats
The Yakima is born in the high peaks of Snoqualmie Pass. It flows east through
the famous wine region of the Yakima Valley until emptying into the Columbia
River near Tri-Cities. We offer two distinct river float choices depending on
the season. Spring through summer we'll float the upper section from east Cle
Elum to near Ellensburg. This gentle Class II section of the river flows through
beautiful Ponderosa Pine forests, towing Basalt spires and past many salmon spawning
on gravel bars. The canyon section is available in September and October and
features fall colors as well as fabulous wildlife viewing and birdwatching. Bighorn
Sheep abound and 21 different species of raptors can be seen as we float through
the monolithic volcanic cliffs on this Class I float.
