Long Camp

Longcamp boat ramp provides access to the Clearwater River in Tramway, Lewis County, Idaho. This is a medium-sized river with a moderate gradient (3.4 ft/mile average) and steady flow averaging 379 cubic feet per second, making it suitable for kayaking, canoeing, and motorized boating. The river drops approximately 512 feet over its 148-mile length, offering varied paddling conditions depending on your put-in and take-out points.

Paddlers should be prepared for the river's moderate velocity of 1.83 feet/second and current conditions typical of a headwater stream. This access point on the upper Clearwater puts you in scenic backcountry terrain in the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest region. Before launching, check current water levels and seasonal conditions with Idaho Fish and Game, as flow and navigability can vary significantly. As with any river access, ensure you have appropriate safety gear and understand the specific conditions of your intended paddling section.
