Helfrich on the McKenzie River. Includes lunch and transportation.
For
families and groups, this a good introduction to rafting the McKenzie
River. The first three miles will be be gentle while rafters get used
to the river. Then come the rapids and lots of wet, white water
excitement. Lunch will follow at Silver Creek. Several rapids later is
Brown's Hole that drops into a pool of effervescent turquoise water.
Meandering through a few more rapids will bring you to the most famous
rapid on the McKenzie River: "Marten's" - a class III rapid with lots of rocks, waves, and
hydraulics. Maneuvering skills honed over the past nine miles will get
you through. A local photographer often waits to get your picture
there; truly the exclamation point of the trip. Email Rachel Johnson if
someone in your group is less than 90 lbs or more than 250 lbs so the
company accommodate the rafter with the correct life vest.
Dress
to get wet! Good fist layer includes shorts, tee-shirt, old shoes.
For colder days, a fleece or rain clothes. (Guides will have dry bags
for extra clothes.) Avoid cotton if possible. Bring sunscreen, hat,
water bottle and a change of clothes. If you're on medication, bring
it. |
