    Great full day on the river. Devin was our guide. He was skilled, funny, and a natural teacher about the ecosystem surrounding us. Delicious riverside lunch as well.

    Trip was well organized and we had a blast on the river! Our guide, Kelley, even showed us how well she can swim as we went through Tunnel Chute. : ) Sorry about your sunglasses, Kelley. : ( It gets a little slow through some sections of the river, but that's a good time to jump in and cool off. Be sure to get out of the raft on the last class 2 rapid and do a solo float. You won't regret it.

    This was an absolutely Amazing trip! Our guides Blake and Devon were entertaining and fantastic. They got our group of 12 into 2 boats and had everyone paddling like experts in no time. And it was a good thing as the rapids were intense. Devon ended up pulling one of us back into the boat at the top part of Tunnel Chute and we made it through. They entire trip was just as exciting and everyone had so much fun. My relatives and family are still telling me right now how great of a day they had and we have been done for 5 hours. Make yourself a hero in your family and book this adventure today!

    What to expect

    The Middle Fork of the American River is the one of the best summertime Class IV whitewater rafting trip in California. This trip meets at 8:15 AM in Auburn. A 45 minute van ride dead ends at Oxbow Reservoir where gear is distributed and the stoke begins. H2O hits your face early with Good Morning rapid. A warmup is immediately needed as the infamous Tunnel Chute rapid is just over a mile downstream. After five miles of good class 3/4 whitewater, the river settles down and provides opportunities for rock jumping, surfing, and ‘riding the bull’ as we float through the canyon towards a riverside lunch stop. Following lunch the river complies with our need to digest and remains calm for a few more miles until arriving at Chunder Pond. From here the river changes drastically with rapids such as Chunder Falls, Parallel Parking, and Ski Jump bringing your adrenaline to a high again. A mandatory walk around Ruck-A-Chucky falls allows for a chance to watch your guides run their raft down a commercial class 6 waterfall. Your trip concludes at the old Greenwood Bridge site. Guests are returned to their vehicles around 4:00 PM.
