What To Expect
Less than 30 minutes away from Ashland, Medford, and Grants Pass, we will launch on the Rogue River as it winds through the lush Southern Oregon landscape. Your guide will train you on basic paddling and river lingo before you splash through some small riffles on your way to the big ones - Powerhouse and Nugget Falls. These two rapids are class III and IV, and are guaranteed to cool you down on a hot summer day.
No experience is necessary, we’ll teach you everything you need to know. In the event that you go swimming (either on purpose or not), all participants will be provided with life jackets and helmets.
