Northern CA and Nevada Whitewater: our trips are all within 2 hours from the Bay Area, Sacramento, Lake Tahoe, and Reno.
We offer a variety of trips, suitable for kids, families, large groups, small groups, parties, corporate groups, and anyone looking to get out and have some fun. We were the very first whitewater rafting company on the Truckee River – our operation focuses on safety, comfort, and good old-fashioned fun!
We operate from April – September. 2023’s record breaking snowfall in the Sierra means the skiing stoke will transfer to whitewater rafting all summer!
