For those paddlers learning how to navigate whitewater, the Lobstick River at Evansburg AB, offers whitewater action, east of the Rockies.

This is a narrow river that provides some whitewater challenges for paddlers typically in early spring and early summer when flow is higher. Depending on the flow the river can range from a Class I to a Class III rapid.
