Labor Day Rogue River family float

This was the first time in a couple of years that this so California family was on vacation together. Unfortunately, a couple of grandkids were unable to join them. And our Cousin Shawn, whom we've not seen much this season, was the guide for their day trip on the Rogue River. Everyone enjoyed their Labor Day on the river.

Ferron's Rogue River Fun Trips winners!

Earlier in the year we donated a day raft trip to Siskiyou Field Institute's Birds and Brew fundraiser. This local couple won the Rogue River rafting trip but cancelled earlier in the summer due to the smoky conditions. Finally they made it to Grave Creek!

This Scottish family that lives in England rafted the Rogue River with Ferron yesterday. They love to travel and dad has visited 33 states in the US. It was a big afternoon for wildlife and the group was able to get very close to black tail deer and also saw lots of geese and mink.

Blue skies while rafting the Rogue River

As you look at these pictures of the Rogue River above Hellgate Canyon you notice blue sky and a bank of smoke from the Big Windy fire. This Wisconsin family enjoyed a morning of rafting the Rogue with blue, clear skies. Wayd said, "This is what summer is supposed to be like. I forgot."

A day of weather while rafting the Rogue River

Yesterday's Rogue River rafting trip with this San Diego family was wild and crazy.  There was lightning, thunder, a downpour, smoke and finally sunshine.  The group was very optimistic and adventurous.  With rain gear on and extra layers they smiled while paddling their inflatable kayaks on the Rogue River.
