SALT RIVER RAFTING

This one-day trip is loaded with whitewater fun!  We will raft through numerous Class III rapids as we venture down the beautiful Salt River Canyon. Our boats will be powered by teamwork, as everybody will have to paddle to help maneuver the crafts. No experience is needed, as your trip leaders will provide expert instruction, however paddling may be physically demanding.

Trip Details : This river is only navigable at certain water levels and is dependent on weather conditions, but normally runs in March-April. Check web site for updates.

Cost: $90.00 Includes equipment, lunch, permits and experienced trip leaders.

Trip Dates : March 26, 27, 28 and 29
