or kayak. Looking for a scenic paddle or a view from a

paddling skills such as paddling strokes, open water
re-entry, packing boats, and much more!!

White Water Kayak and Canoe Trips:
We run white water kayaking and canoing trips on the White River on class I-III water. We provide
boats, spray skirts (small additional cost for spray skirt), paddles, PFDs, and helmets. Basic paddling
skills are taught in a brief on-river class just prior to putting in. Students will learn paddling stokes,
basic self-rescue, and basic river hydrology. Throughout the trip additional skills can be learned
such as more advanced stokes and information about river features. The length and specific section
of the river that we paddle is determined by the participants experience and the river conditions.
Please CONTACT US for more information.

White River (VT - Min. flow rate 450 cfs)

| A Word About the Dangers of Adventure Activities: |
| "There is magic in the feel of a paddle and the movement of a canoe, a magic compounded of distance, adventure, solitude, and peace. The way of a canoe is the way of the wilderness and of a freedom almost forgotten. It is an antidote to insecurity, the open door to waterways of ages past and a way of life with profound and abiding satisfaction." ~Sigurd Olson |
