There's whitewater on Grande Ronde River for all you adrenaline kick people, and Moore Flat is a splendid spot. Some close by water includes Cherry Creek, and a trip to Moore Flat invigorates the spirit.
Slide Canyon is a tremendous spot to stop at close by, and camping is available at Spruce Spring Campground.
