Spring Activities
Fishing
When you’re looking to fish, there are at least five large lakes or reservoirs, five rivers and countless small mountain lakes and streams to choose from in the Lake Cascade Recreation Area.
Hiking
The Frank Church Wilderness Area, just east of Cascade, is the largest roadless wilderness area in the lower 48 states.
Mushroom Hunting
A favorite “sport” for locals and visitors alike is “morel mushroom hunting.”
Rafting & Kayaking
Rafting and kayaking on the rivers is a terrific summer sport. There are services available that will take you and your group out, or you can go out on your own if you prefer.
Disc Golf
Enjoy this challenging course not far from Kelly’s White Water Park. Plenty of shade and variety!
Backcountry Flights
Backcountry flights provide an unforgettable adventure that will take you into remote areas of scenic wilderness.
Dark Skies
Clear and crisp mountain nights and low light pollution make for optimal sky and star-gazing conditions.
