During spring runoff it's an extremely scenic and remote river with a range of white water sections including class IV rapids and more. Actual travel through the bush is limited to about 15 portages.
Fishing includes speckled and rainbow trout.
This trip is for intermediate to advanced paddlers with previous whitewater and camping experience. We follow the route from White Lake Provincial Park to Superior's shore and on Superior to Hattie Cove. The river is rich in history. Nomadic Ojibway tribes hunted and fished, fur traders paddled and you'll see remnants of bygone era of lumberjacks and log drives. Surrounded by a boreal forest the river's slow meandering sections give way to chutes, gorges and waterfalls such as the 30 m Umbata Falls.
