July 27 Rogue River float



This family, their French exchange student, and the son's friend joined us Wednesday for a Rogue River float from Hog to Argo. It was the first time the French lady in the green lifejacket had been on the river. We had a great time even with the upstream afternoon winds. Sue was glad she had rear mount support and most in the boat were glad they had water guns!

July 26 Rogue River rafting

This family from Texas joined us on the Rogue River today. Dad is a firefighter and the real fighter was the young man who challenged Argo Rapids and fell out! The group came to us from Out 'N About Treehouses. With mid 80 temperatures it was a wonderful day to be on the river.

July 25 Rogue River rafting trip



These folks on our guided Rogue River rafting trip today have all been experienced rafters. The gentleman on the left had requested to paddle so we provided a rear mount paddle support raft. He really enjoyed the relaxation, too. his partner said, "This is the life." The gentleman on the right has kayaked the Rogue in the past and felt more comfortable on guided trip this time. He kept himself upright through Argo and had a great afternoon.

Inclement July 18 weather on the Rogue River



Our rafters from Portland enjoyed their float today even though we are having inclement weather. Marcella, in the front of the inflatable kayak, chose whitewater rafting and hopes to go to an OMSI camp next year to learn more.
