What to Wear on a River Trip

What to Wear & Bring


-Swimsuit/nylon shorts (avoid cotton because it stays the temperature of the water and keeps you cold)
-Shoes that can get wet or secure sandals with heel straps
-Wetsuits for spring trips (available for rent)
-Wetsuit boots all season (available for rent)
-Fleece jacket and fleece socks (not necessary – just provides added -warmth if you tend to get cold)

For Rivers With Class I, II, & III rapids:

Wear quick-drying clothes like nylon shorts and a swimsuit with shoes that can get wet (they must have a strap around the heel, no flip flops or slide on shoes). In spring and on high water trips wool, fleece or any synthetic garment is recommended. These materials stay warm when wet, unlike cotton which stays the temperature of the water. We have wetsuits, fleece and wetsuit boots available for rent in all sizes from small children through large adults (up to 300+ pounds).

For Rivers with Class IV & V Rapids:

Wetsuits and wetsuit boots are required and wool, fleece and synthetic jackets and socks are recommended. We recommend you arrive at the trip’s designated meeting location with a swimsuit under your clothes so you can easily slide the wetsuit over your swimsuit. Overnight trips require camping equipment (tent, 10 degree sleeping bag, pad or cot if desired – high quality rentals available) and personal gear (warm camp clothes, extra fleece jacket, rain gear, bug spray, toiletries, extra socks, warm jacket, hiking boots/shoes, warm hat, gloves…). Don’t forget your waterproof camera, eye glass straps, water bottle, sun glasses, sunscreen, lip balm and a sun hat as well as your sense of humor and adventure!

Whitewater Rafting: Rapid Classes Demystified

Whitewater Rafting: Rapid Classes Demystified

Class I? Class II? III, IV, V?! What does it all mean?

Rapid ratings don’t seem simple, because they really aren’t. The American system of whitewater rapid ratings is subjective (for example, a class-V rapid on one river can be totally different from a class-V on another) and leaves a lot of room for interpretation. Further complicating things, a rapid’s rating DOES NOT vary by water level, even though water-level changes can have DRASTIC effects on the objective difficulty and hazards of a rapid.

Well don’t fret! In just a little more than a single minute, we’re going to show you a typical example of each rapid rating from West Virginia’s New and Gauley Rivers, and explain why it’s rated that way. (Just keep that whole water-level thing in mind though, okay?)

Ever been whitewater rafting? While on our 11-Day #Vanlife adventure, we had the chance to raft the Upper Pigeon River here in Hartford, Tennessee with an incredible outfitter – “Rafting In The Smokies.” They’re been doing this since 1978 and will absolutely show you and your family or friends a good time outside!

They are adventure experts that offer rafting, a zip line canopy tour, a ropes course, and a rock climbing wall! They’re locally owned and operated and believe that the best way to see nature is to get as close as possible. Every detail of their business reflects their philosophy of sustainable tourism.

The Pigeon River offers a thrilling ride, but doesn’t require expertise. The Class III and IV rapids are perfect for a beginner and yet still challenging enough for someone who rafts every chance they can get.

A new axe arrives and it is my favorite by far! This style is known as the rafting, cedar, or national pattern and in this video I unbox it with Laurel and then review its features and history. The next video will document the carving of a new handle and the hanging of the sharpened head and of course testing it out! Subscribe and hit that thumbs up if you want to see more videos like this!

Truckee River Rafting || South Lake Tahoe || Things to do during Summer

lifestyle No Comments »

Back from a very long hiatus. This video was actually 2 months ago, one of the few last trips we had with my very good friend Maria before she left.
We decided to take a trip up to Lake Tahoe for some fun experience like this and oh boy it did not disappoint. There is more to Lake Tahoe than hiking and swimming. Head up to Truckee for some fun river rafting. You basically have the river all day to yourself with the ticket you purchase, you can stop to swim or just take your time and enjoy the view while you are being carried along the river till you reach the very end. The river is 5 mile long, the water is cold but tolerable.
Don’t forget to bring some sunscreen and snacks with you!

A 4-hour rafting trip down the Truckee River. Three of us traveled to Carson City, Nevada for a week and did all types of activities in the area. One of the highlights of the trip was a white-water rafting trip down the Truckee River.
.
Randy’s nephew was our river guide for the trip and he was a seasoned pro! We went through Class 2 rapids, Class 3 rapids, and even a Class 4 rapid on during the trip.
.
The first part of the trip was a nice relaxing journey through calm waters where the rafters could leave their boats and go for a quick swim. Soon we hit the real rapids of the river and it was all business!
.
We went with Tahoe Whitewater Tours: https://www.gowhitewater.com/ and they were great!
