The Sauk River is located in the North Cascades just outside of Darrington, about an hour and a half north of Seattle. This river is federally protected as a Wild & Scenic River, preserving its beauty. Incredible mountain views add to the trill of class 3 to 4 whitewater. On this trip rafter encounter challenging rapids with names like Jaws, Whirlpool, and Popeye for main part of the trip, followed by a calmer section at the end that gives plenty of time to really enjoy the scenery.
