Packing List
This is a recommended list of clothing, personal items and gear to bring along on your rafting trip. Please contact us if you have any questions. Our staff will help you decide what to bring given your individual circumstances and trip itinerary.
General Information
- Each guest is provided with a large dry bag for storing clothing, personal items and other gear on multi-day trips (see photo above). This bag will not be accessible during the day. Items needed during the day, such as sunscreen, medications, camera and rainwear can be stowed in a small pack for easy access on all trips.
- Most hotels will store excess luggage and valuables.
- Cash: For stops on the way to and from the river. Guests are welcome to purchase additional beverages (beer, wine and soft drinks) for their trip, and refreshments for the drive. Guides also accept gratuities for a job well done.
