Lodging

We provide all of the basics such as bedding, towels, paper goods, dish soap, bar soap for shower, dishware, utensils, cookware. All units have full kitchens except for the lodge rooms, which have a kitchenette with small refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker. You only have to bring anything that you can eat – salt, pepper, spices, condiments, food, and coffee (unless you’re in a lodge room). The vacation homes have more cookware, salt and pepper, crock pots, blenders and hair dryers. You are responsible for supplying toiletries such as shampoo and lotion.

The official check in time is 4:00 pm but if the unit is ready earlier, you may check in when it’s ready.

We will leave you a late arrival envelop on our office door with your name on it. There will be a map and instructions in it.

RAFTING

If possible, do not wear cotton. Synthetic materials or very light cotton will dry quickly and won’t weigh you down. Jeans are not allowed.

We provide you with life jacket, neoprene booties, splash jacket and pants, wetsuit if wanted. Most wear shorts/bathing suit and t-shirts.

We do not require helmets but they are available to anyone upon request.

There is not technically a weight limit. Participants should be in reasonably good health in order to self-rescue should they fall out of the boat into very cold river water with natural obstacles like rocks and bushes. Our splash jackets go up to size XXXL. Our splash pants go up to size XXL

If a toddler can walk and weighs at least 30 lbs, they may go on the Lower Taylor trip. There is no maximum age.

Gratuity is not included. It is up to you, based on your experience. Tips vary widely from 10%-20% of the trip cost per person.

That is a question between you and your medical provider. We cannot advise you. All trips we provide are at your own risk.

It is possible to take rafters with varying disabilities. We will work with clients of our local Adapative Sport center https://

www.adaptivesports.org/. You may contact them or call us to discuss your particular situation.

Fishing

Wear non-cotton quick-drying materials and bring layers to wear under the waders. If wading, you will be standing in very cold water. The waders have a neoprene sock which fits inside a wading boot. You will initially feel that cold water until your body heat warms up the neo-prene, like a wetsuit for your feet. Bring layers as temperatures can vary up to 50 degrees in a day. A hat and rain jacket are recommended.

All gear, tackle and lunches (for full day trips) are included. Additional costs are for license, tackle that you choose, and gratuity for the guide. Gratuities are generally in the range of 20% + of trip cost but it should be based on your experience with your guide.
