Good things to know before you arrive at our
moose river Rafting Center...

"ARRIVAL TIME" is not Departure Time!
Your written confirmation includes an "Arrival Time" for each of the activities you've reserved. This is the time that you and your group should be on-site, ready to begin the process of completing paperwork and dressing for the trip. It isn't the time the rafts are scheduled to launch, nor is it the time the bus shuttle leaves for the river.

In Your Raft - To Bring Or Not To Bring!
Ice chests and coolers are not permitted. Please do not bring your change of clothes, towels, valuables, keys, cameras (if not waterproof), or other items. These can be easily lost or damaged if taken in the raft.

What To Wear!
Old sneakers, shorts and a T-shirt are usually best. Whatever you wear is likely to get wet. A baseball cap or visor can be helpful on bright sunny days. In cooler weather, wet suits can be rented at the Adventure Center. They are not included in the raft trip price; however, advance reservations or advance payment are not needed for wet suits. We recommend against wearing cotton under the suits because this can make you colder. Nylon, polypro, wool blends or other synthetics work best. Polypro offers the best combination of comfort and warmth and is available in the Adventure Center store. A light windbreaker over the wet suit is helpful on colder days. No hooded rain suits, please.

Bring The Correct Footwear!
Wet suit booties work best during cooler seasons. Otherwise please wear old sneakers. Loose-fitting sandals, "crocs," flip flops and bare feet are not permitted..

Strap On Your Glasses!
Eye glasses are permitted although discouraged unless needed. Eyeglass straps are essential. Contacts are acceptable, but may at times be splashed or otherwise affected.

moose river Water Levels Can Change Quickly!
River levels can sometimes rise or fall unexpectedly. When we are able, we'll notify you in advance if a dramatic change has occurred. In all cases, though, we'll select the best available river route, based on the preferences you've requested.
