The North Fork section of the Shoshone River is an enjoyable and scenic river trip that provides paddlers with mostly class II and occasional class III rapids. There are sections of slower currents throughout the trip providing opportunities for relaxed paddling and enjoying the scenery. There are multiple access sites and campgrounds located along the river giving paddlers the option of how far to paddle and what sections of the river to run. Checking current conditions and scouting the river before setting out is advised as some of the rapids can increase in difficulty depending on water flow.
