Red, white and blue Rogue River rafters on July 4

Some of our guests dressed for the holiday by wearing red, white and blue on their rafting trip yesterday.  Another family also joined Ferron for a Rogue River rafting day trip.  The girls from each family decided to tackle Argo Falls together as a team and raise their paddles triumphantly at the bottom.

July 2 Rogue River Rafting Trip with wildlife galore!

The gentleman on our July 2 rafting trip was on a Rogue River trip with Ferron 23 years ago!! His dog came along and we hear was excellent following commands as it swam in the river. This was an amazing wildlife trip. Viewed were: natrix, a water snake, mink, beaver, osprey, juvenile bald eagel, golden bald eagle, merganizers, great blue heron, green blue heron, fawn and four does, turtles, the infamous turkey vultures and Canadian geese.

Rafting on the Rogue River the first day of July

As temperatures neared 100 degrees this family from the Bay area joined Ferron for a day trip. The family is on a three week vacation and was spending two nights at a goat cheese farm in the city of Rgoue River. It was so hot that everyone took a turn in a kayak and even a deer was spotted drinking in the water!

June 28 Rogue River Raft trip from Hog Creek to Galice through Hellgate Canyon

This Seattle couple rafted the Rogue River last year in a paddleboat.  This year they decided to try their hands and skills at kayaking.  We decided they can rent kayaks from us next year.  They are ready to venture off on their own.

A cool day on the Rogue River

Repeat customers from Washington decided to brave the cool dampness yesterday to be on the Rogue River with Ferron and the pups.  The family arrived in so Oregon at 4 AM for their trip.  They stayed at the Treesort in Takilma last year and are going to zip line there today.  Weather predicted to warm up into the 90's tomorrow.

June 21, the longest day of the year, and a great day for a Ferron's Rogue River Raft trip

This family of four joined Ferron yesterday for a full day trip. The dad had worked on the Pacific Crest Trail in years past. Mom and Dad were avid birders, and more so before two kids came along. The group actually saw a water ouzel nest in the same area where there are cliff swallow mud nests.

June 18 full day Rogue River raft trip. This was the sunniest part of the day. Photo taken at Hog Creek on the Rogue River

This family repeated the trip they took with us last year; it was just about the same time. While the sun was shining in the early portion of the day, blustery weather and winds blew in. The boys remembered Pupeye and Curry. Dad kayaked from Hog Creek to Galice on the Rogue River but chose to stay warm in the afternoon. The 13 year old, however, stayed in the kayak the whole trip. One of the guests on the morning trip saw a bald eagle for the first time.
