What are Packrafts?

Packrafts are small inflatable boats that can be used on lakes, creeks and rivers, including whitewater. 

Uses

• As a means of crossing a river or body of water in the middle of a hike
• Backpack and raft trips: pack down to fit in a backpack for a hike in – raft out trip
• Rafting a local river or creek
• Running whitewater 
• Fishing
• Hunting

Our raft rentals need to be approved prior to payment so I can make sure you have completed the waiver and understand the limitations, safety protocol and set up of the rafts. 

Please note the following:

Replacement costs for rafts: $1900-$2200

Replacement costs for paddles $400

Replacement costs for electric pump $70 – not waterproof! 

If your raft should float down the river without you, or you lose your paddle in the river, it will be up to you to replace it! That goes for theft as well while transporting the boat.

Safety

Please make sure you understand the sport of packrafting and have a respect for bodies of water, particularly rivers and creeks. Get proper training before you go and team up with someone who understands waterways. We are hoping to offer some packrafting specific education in the near future!
