I have never been rafting before. Is that o.k.?
YES!! This specific rafting event is meant for everyone. The trips
have mild rapids (Class I and II) and are ideal for all ages and skill levels. Because of the mild nature of this stretch of the river, you will have the opportunity to have a scenic float, get out and swim, and completely relax. The
guides are very knowledable and take all the necesasry precautions
to ensure a safe and fun trip.
What age levels are appropriate
for rafting?
The minimum age for the day rafting trips is 5 years old. Anyone
older than 5 years old is welcome on the trip.
What should I bring?
Each trip already includes everything you need (gear, raft, equipment,
guides, tranportation). The temperature will be hot, so it is recommended
that you dress prepared for summer heat. You will have the opportunity
to swim if you desire. Typically the best attire is short-sleeve
T-shirt with shorts and swim suit underneath.
- Wear sport shoes/sandals that can get wet
- Bring sunscreen
- Bring a hat, visor and/or sunglasses
- Extra bottle of water
If you need to purchase outdoor gear or clothing, visit Red Rock Outfitters. The Moab Adventure Center also hosts it's own retail store, so you can purchase anything you need when you get to Moab as well.
Do I need to stay in a hotel?
Lodging and travel options are up to you. All of the trips and events
start and end on Saturday, July 12th. It is possible to make a day
trip for the event. However, because it is a full day of activity, you may find it easier to stay in town so you can enjoy yourself for the evening. Be sure to check the meeting times for your
rafting trip so you arrive on-time. You can find a complete
list of hotels, motels, ranches, condos and campgrounds links
