We had two families on half day guided
trips yesterday. The first family had a little boy that was full of
energy and excitement. Him and Dad tried the kayak together and had wild
rides through the rapids. The second family was from Virginia and
stayed at the Vertical Horizon's resort. They were in the kayaks for a
short period of time as the water was a bit chilly. There were many
Osprey, geese, and merganser sightings.

Season winding down
The temperatures are cooler, the phone is ringing less, and the river is dropping. It's beginning to look like the end of the season. Still a few more big trips and of course we're ready for more guided trips and rentals. There have been many animal sightings this season, here are a few examples.

Rogue River rafting with family and friends
Yesterday Sue guided a trip of friends and their loved ones. Two of the women Sue has known for over thirty years. One of the women is friends with the gentleman in the front of the raft; they have known each other much longer and Sue became friends with him. This same woman had her cousin visiting from Martha's Vineyard, MA, which was Sue's old stomping grounds. We left early in the morning to avoid the Saturday crowds and had much of the river to themselves for much of the day.
