Topic: The New Klamath: Whitewater, restoration, and new reasons to visit this renewed river.
In 2024, dams were removed from the Klamath River, opening up miles of spectacular whitewater. The renewed Klamath River offers a unique opportunity to visit sections of river that had been inaccessible for decades. Through advocacy and determination, whitewater recreation was mandated by FERC to be included in the scope of the largest dam removal project in history. Today, the combined efforts of American Whitewater and local outfitters have led to the opportunity to explore the “New Klamath.”
