Enjoy a riverside snack of a granola bar, apple squeeze or fruit, and drink while relaxing with family and friends. Will spend approximately 3 – 4 hours on the river.

Option 2 – *Must be reasonably physically fit, 12 years old and weigh between 90-250 lbs. Class III whitewater on an inflatable kayak, also called a Ducky!
