What's Included
- Professional Guide, instruction, and equipment
- Wetsuits and Splash Jackets if required (seasonally dependent, see Wetsuit Information to learn more)
- Delicious fresh lunch
- River shuttle by bus to and from the meet place for your trip
What to Wear
- Athletic shoes that are lace-up or cinch-up. Closed-toed sneakers are recommended because they stay on your feet and offer the best foot protection. Athletic-style sandals like Tevas and Chacos are acceptable but not ideal as they leave your toes exposed. For added warmth and comfort, consider wearing wool or neoprene socks.
- Swimsuit
- Quick drying shorts to wear over swimsuit is recommended for more comfort
- Thin long-sleeve shirt and pants made out of athletic materials for additional sun protection and/or extra layering
- View wetsuit information and additional layering tips to learn about special clothing items required on trips occurring in spring, early summer, at higher flows, or in inclement weather
- For additional information and helpful videos, see What to Wear for Rafting (by season)
Do NOT Wear
- Flip-flops, slip-ons, "Aqua-sock" type footwear, or loose-fitting shoes. These types of shoes slip off easily and do not provide enough protection for your feet while in the raft or during a swim.
- Thick cotton clothing. When wet, cotton acts like a sponge and can keep you cool even on a fairly warm day.
What to Bring
- Personal Medicine
- Change of clothing for ride home
- Waterproof sunblock, sunglasses with strap, hat, visor (optional)
- Water bottle to stay hydrated throughout the day. There will be opportunities to refill your bottle at the meet place and during the trip.
While on the river, you need little other than your river attire. There is limited space available in a water-resistant bag for additional items, such as rain gear or medication, that you might need during the day (no towels, please). This bag is usually available only during the lunch stop.
Do NOT Bring
Pets, expensive watch or jewelry, cell phone, or camera without water protection. Space is limited on the boat. Please note that storage of wallets, and other valuables is the participant's responsibility.
