Exciting Rafting Adventures Await – Even in Low Water! 

7/30/24 Dear Adventurers,

We wanted to let you know that we are currently experiencing normal low water conditions. But don’t worry – the fun and excitement are still very much part of the journey!

What to Expect with Low Water Rafting:
More Technical Runs: Lower water levels mean you’ll navigate through more exposed rocks and tighter channels, making for a more technically challenging and engaging ride. It’s a fantastic opportunity to hone your rafting skills and experience the river in a unique way.

Family-Fun: Lower water conditions are perfect for families and beginners. The calmer water allows for a safer and more relaxed introduction to the thrill of rafting.

Adventure at Every Turn: While the pace may be slower, the excitement of navigating through the river’s natural obstacles provides plenty of thrills and spills for all adventure seekers.

We believe every rafting trip is a new adventure, and low water trips are no exception. Our experienced guides are experts in making sure you have a safe, enjoyable, and exhilarating time on the river, regardless of the conditions.
