Pritchard Boating Site

Pritchard Boating Site is an excellent place to launch your boat if you are looking for a quiet scenic stretch of river to float and fish. If you're looking for a combination river floating experience, Pritchard will give you the opportunity to begin your river trip with a section of peaceful floating followed by the rush of the whitewater section. If you have small children or new river goers in your group that are hesitant about floating whitewater, the stretch from Pritchard to West Table is a great route.
