Clendinning Creek is one of two popular whitewater kayak multi day trips in South West BC.

Paddlers fly out of Green Lake in Whistler, it is usually a 2-day trip or can be combined with Fear Canyon on the Elaho to make a 3 days trip.

It kicks off by briefly flowing northeast for about 1.4 km before turning southeast and flowing that way for about 26.2 km until it reaches the Elaho River.

Wave Creek enters the river where it turns from northeast to southeast, about 1.4 below the outlet of Clendinning Lake.

Jacobson Creek enters the river about 1.7 miles above its confluence with the Elaho.
