AWESOME! We are running all trips in canoes, kayaks & rafts. Stand-up-paddleboards are running trip #1 & #2.  Tubes have continuous starts from 8 am to 1:30 pm on the weekends and from 9 am to 12:30 pm on the weekdays.  The river level is currently in the middle of the Normal range, a great level. Dress in layers and take a change of clothes with you on your trip. Remember to bring plenty of drinking water, snacks, sunscreen, shoes that you can wear in the river, and a change of clothes. Also. remember to always wear your life vest! Please check this page before coming out to the river to see if there are any restrictions in place. See you on the river!
