For anyone looking to get a little wetter than you traditionally do in a raft, inflatable kayaking is the thing to do! Each person will have their own inflatable kayak, and there will be one or two guides per group. This sport is for self-sufficient people who like to control their own destinies. We can also combine raft and ducky trips for families or groups of friends with mixed interests.
The Basalt Mountain section is ideal for ducky trips. The rapids are pool drop, so there is plenty of time to pick up the pieces at the bottom of the rapids! There are fun and challenging rapids for the adventurous duckier, but these rapids are also easily portaged by those who are just learning. Kids under 15 may need to ride in a Ducky with an adult.

We suggest wearing quick-drying clothing such as non-cotton shorts and t-shirt and/or a bathing suit. Also important are sunscreen (you will be rafting at nearly 9,000 feet where the sun is intense!), sunglasses with retaining device, waterproof camera, and old sneakers or sandals with a heal strap. Bring a towel to dry off with and a change of clothes for your ride home. We provide splash gear on all of our trips, and wetsuit, helmet, and wetsuit booties when appropriate.
