No, we have multiple pick-up locations on our way to the river. We recommend bringing a backpack or bag to leave your keys, phones and anything else you don’t want to take on the river. 
If you’re meeting us at our Outpost you can leave anything you don’t want to take with you on the river in your car. 

No, there are porta-potties at some of the river access points, but we recommend wearing your bathing suits under your clothes so you can slide your wetsuits on when you get to the river.

No, we recommend bringing your own towel so you can dry off after your trip. No need to bring it on the river. It’ll just get wet.

We don’t recommend it. Anything that you would be ok potentially losing to the river should stay in the shuttle vehicle or in your hotel. 

As much as we would love to play with your pup, dogs are not the best boat mates. 
Here are a few doggy day-cares in the area:

No. This is a river. It will end up in the Pacific Ocean… or evaporate before it gets there

Our trips depart rain or shine! Rafting is one of the best activities because it doesn’t require blue skies. We have wetsuits and splash tops to keep you warm on the river. 

The Upper Fork, Lower Fork and Browns Canyon are great options for non-swimmers. The high adventure sections REQUIRE that you know how to swim and are a strong swimmer. 

What are the different rapids classifications?

CLASS I – VERY EASY

Moving water; passages are clear of any major obstacles. These sections of river are relaxing and provide a nice rest between rapids to enjoy scenery.

CLASS III – MODERATE

(Intermediate) Rapids are longer, and markedly more powerful. Paddlers are required to maneuver through forceful and irregular currents, rocks and holes in the channel. Exciting and fun- note minimum age requirements.

CLASS IV – INTERMEDIATE

(Difficult) Very long rapids; dangerous rocks and powerful waves, currents and eddies require precise and powerful maneuvering. Thrillseekers.

CLASS V – DIFFICULT

(Very Difficult) Violent and long rapids follow each other with little interruption; a severely obstructed riverbed with big drops; steep gradient and a powerful current. Experienced Thrillseekers.
