Do I need experience to rent equipment? : While experience is not required to rent equipment it is highly recommended that you have previous rafting or kayaking experience with a guided outfitter before attempting any river on your own due to whitewater rafting and kayaking's inherent risks. We offer guided rafting and kayaking trips that will teach you the basics necessary to come back and try it on your own. When in doubt always take a guided trip first! What kind of vehicle do I need to transport a raft or kayak? : A vehicle with a solid roof rack that you can tie the boat to always works best! Otherwise an inflatable kayak can fit into most car trunks. For a raft you will need a pickup truck or SUV, or a hatchback with a lot of room like a subaru outback. Also keep in mind you will get the inside of your vehicle very wet and very dirty so choose a guided trip if this doesn't sound like something you want to do! Can I rent equipment to take to other whitewater rivers? : You can rent equipment for other rivers provided that the section you are planning on running doesn't exceed class 3 in it's difficulty rating. Class 4 and 5 rivers are not covered by our insurance and we can not rent you equipment for those rivers. What are some other river trips in the area?: Besides the Lehigh River you can rent equipment for Pine Creek(the Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania), Nescopeck creek, the Lackawaxen river and the Mongaup river. Subject to adequate water levels or a scheduled dam release. Call an adventure specialist for more information, trip advice and current water levels. |
