About This Access Site
Willard National Fish Hatchery Put-In provides access to the Little White Salmon River, a popular whitewater paddling destination in Skamania County, Washington. This put-in serves as a starting point for kayakers and canoeists looking to run sections of the Little White Salmon, which is known for its whitewater rapids and scenic canyon setting. The hatchery location offers a convenient access point for paddlers planning day trips on this section of river.

The Little White Salmon is primarily suited for whitewater paddlers with intermediate to advanced skills due to its current and rapid formations. Paddlers should be prepared for fast-moving water and should scout sections beforehand if unfamiliar with the river. The site's location near the hatchery means access is tied to the facility's operational status and regulations.
