What do we need to bring?
Perhaps one of the most often asked and hardest to answer question is "What do we bring"? Here's a small list of essential item to bring:
- A warm change of clothes;
- rain gear;
- swimming shorts;
- swim suit;
- sunglasses (with croakies);
- sunscreen;
- an waterproof camera;
- some shoes you can get wet (we suggest either tennis shoes, or a river sandal (Tevas, Chacos).
We have a shop on base if you need to need to purchase any of these things! On the spring and fall trips we require that you wear a wetsuit while on the river. You are welcome to rent one of our suits or bring one of your own. Rental of a full suit is $12.00, a half is $6.00, and booties are $5.00. Bring wool socks.
Please don't forget to bring a change of dry clothing and footwear for your trip home!
Safety During Our Trips
In 2004 we achieved the best safety record in the industry. We'll strive to maintain this record by;
- hiring only experienced guides - using the best equipment available;
- preparing our guests properly for the adventures, your knowledge helps keep you safe.
It's my job to give our guests the the trill they want, safely, and keep myself safe to go home to my family ever night. These sentiments go hand in hand, and form the foundation for our safety policies.
