If you love rafting down the rivers, camping under the stars, eating dutch oven meals, and exploring the wilderness with reckless abandon, you also likely love beards.
I love it when I hear guests say “Well, this was NOT what I expected!” because they are always pleasantly surprised at how fun a multi-day river trip can be. I decided to compile my most commonly-heard misconceptions about multi-day whitewater trips from guests and explain them here. Enjoy!
You booked your trip this last Winter, and the time to depart is at hand! You could just go out there and wing it, or you could try out these easy, at home exercises to get ready for your big adventure!
For a few calm moments I close my eyes listening to the peace of the canyons and distant crash of the river around the bend. Eventually the soft white noise is broken with laughing children, hooping and hollering adults, and swift oars slicing through the water.
