| Is
it Expensive? |
River rafting is a real adventure bargain. Unlike most sports,
river rafting virtually requires no investment of equipment
on the client's part. We offer family and group discounts
(as well as meal discounts) that can be added to any trip
package for great savings and convenience. Please give us
a call at 1-800-994-7238 for details...

Is it Dangerous? |
Your safety is our number one priority. We talk and practice
safety before, during, and after each adventure . Our Safety
Record proves it! By just listening to your professional guide's
pre-trip instructions you can virtually preclude any mishaps.
In fact, rafting is much safer that driving your car and is
about as risky as riding a bicycle.

| How
old do I have to be? |
River rafting is for the young at heart of all ages. For instance,
on our mildest trip (the Middle Klamath), we take children as
young as age 3. On other exciting whitewater adventures ages
vary from age 6 and up. In short, we offer rafting adventures
from MILD... to WILD... for all ages. <<Back

| Do
I need to know how to swim? |
Many of our rafting guests cannot swim nor is it necessary to
know how. We supply you with the finest US Coast Guard approved
personal flotation devices (PFD) better know as a life jacket.
Ever guest wears a life jacket at all times while on or near
the river. Sure you'll get wet and, Yes, you'll love it! Cautious
people however usually start with the Middle Klamath, tree of
Heaven run and work up the adventure ladder from there.

| What
do you need to bring and where do we meet? |
Like any outdoor activity such as camping, skiing or going to
the beach... learning to wear the right clothing insures your
comfort. Once you make your reservation, we will mail or fax
you a list of what to bring along with a map of where to meet
for the start of your rafting adventure.

| All
these web sites and brochures look alike... What's the difference? |
More people each year choose Living Waters Recreation for their
next river rafting adventure, because experience does count.
Along with putting your safety first, we use state of the art
commercial grade, custom designed self bailing rafts and inflatable
kayaks... the most maneuverable and stable on the river.

| How
strenuous is it.... Do I have to paddle? |
We offer you oar or paddle options on all the rivers we raft.
On our mild runs you have the option of sitting back, relaxing
and soaking up the sun and scenery or you can paddle. On other
trips your guide teaches you the correct paddle strokes and
then you run the river as a team.

| When
is the best time to come? |
In the Spring, snowfall and rain fill the rivers for the wildest,
adrenaline-pumping fun you'll ever have. In Summer, warm sunny
days and refreshing waves make this the most popular rafting
season. In Fall, fall colors and salmon runs ensure a great
trip. <<Back To Top>> |
| Is
it Scary? I don't want to fall in! |
Actually the chances of you falling out of the raft is slim
to none. In the calm sections, many of our guests like to slip
over the side of the raft and swim for the pleasure of it. On
occasion someone falls in, but with a boatload of companions
and your professionally trained guide nearby, it's generally
a short swim. Remember, everyone wears a Coast Guard approved
life jacket. <<Back

| What
Trip is best for me? |
That depends on you. Do you want to float and relax with a touch
of whitewater thrown in? Or are you looking for some world-class
whitewater action? Would you prefer a one-day, or even a two,
three or four day trip? Your concerns are our concerns. Give
us a call at 1-800-994-7238 and one of our friendly, knowledgeable
staff will help you plan the perfect rafting adventure for you,
your family and friends. One call does it all!
