River DescriptionLocated deep within the old-growth forests of Olympic National Park and twelve miles up a hiking trail, the North Fork Quinault Gorge is a true wilderness run. Although the 3 mile gorge section ends at Kimata Creek, paddlers can continue on down through 9 more miles of class II whitewater to reach the North Fork trailhead. Check out the North Fork Quinault Gorge page on Jason Rackley's site. There are several photos along with a good description that includes the logistics. Lat/long listed below are very approximate.
