Rogue River Rafting with families from Portland, OR and Richmond, VA

From 5 years old to grandparents these folks enjoyed a half day afternoon trip on the Rogue River with Ferron yesterday.  Ferron said the 5 year old belted out a mean rendition of Hit Me With Your Best Shot while both granddads tried the inflatable kayaks. The families were from Portland and Richmond, VA and are vacationing together.

Three generations rafting the Rogue River

This reunion was in the making since early this year.  Parents, their kids, and their kids' kids gathered in Galice for the week end and spent Friday morning on the river with Ferron's Rogue River Fun Trips.  Some brought their own tahitis, some rented rafts and some joined the half day morning guided trip.

Women's Rogue River Rafting Trip

This is the second year one of Sue's former college colleagues, her partner, her mom, her sister and girlfriends joined Sue.  This year we rafted on the Rogue River from Hog Creek to Grave Creek.  The winds blew upstream most of the day and there were many folks on the river.  Still these intrepid women stayed in the double inflatable tomkats all day long and we still had the opportunity to enjoy some solitude.  The blue heron in this album seemed to enjoy it, too.  We also saw a mink and bald eagle.  Sue enjoyed this busy day on the river a lot with these wonderful women.

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!
