Sentinel Rapid

Sentinel Rapid is a Class III rapid located on the South Fork Owyhee River in Idaho's remote canyon country, featuring fun intermediate whitewater suitable for rafts and kayaks during spring runoff (typically April-June).

The rapid is situated near Sentinel Canyon with several good campsites in the area and access to hiking trails, making it a notable feature on multi-day upper Owyhee River trips that typically run 5-7 days from the pipeline launch site to Three Forks.
