The Whitewater River Run from the Outlet of Snoqualmie Lake to the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Boundary in Washington is a popular destination for whitewater enthusiasts. The ideal streamflow range for this section of the river is between 700-1500 cfs. The segment covers approximately 8.1 miles and is rated as class III-IV rapids.
