2 hour Raft Trip on a Standard Boat - Adult

2 hour Raft Trip on a Standard Boat - Adult ~ 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Description

Our two hour trip is the short "Splash & Dash" run with about 1 hour river time. You start and finish in 2 hours from our downtown location. This Class I-III stretch of the river starts north above town and meanders downstream. During this trip you can expect to experience several rapids and historical landmarks of the Old West.
After a thorough safety orientation and a few minutes on the river to get everyone situated and comfortable on the raft, the fun starts off with Rivertripper Rapid. We are very proud of this drop. We designed and built the rapid after the area was disturbed with utilities buried beneath the river bottom. It is fun as well as being a good example of how a disturbed area in nature can be aesthetically enhanced while using the natural elevation change in the river. To create wildlife habitat, a good rapid, and fun for all.

We then continue onward through Main Street Bridge, Little Smelter, Smelter Rapid, Santa Rita Hole, Sawmill Rapid, K-Mart Rapid, as well as an international Whitewater race course.
