Join us for an unforgettable experience with Backpacks+Bleeders for Families on The River rafting trip on Saturday, June 21nd! We'll kick off the adventure with a delicious lunch and time to socialize at the check-in location, followed by an exhilarating half-day of rafting.

Embark on a thrilling journey through the Bighorn Sheep Canyon, where a mix of mild to moderate adventures awaits amidst breathtaking landscapes. This area is renowned for its resident Bighorn sheep, offering glimpses of these majestic creatures along the riverbanks and rugged mountain slopes. Even if we don't catch any wildlife, the time navigating the rapids is always exciting.

If the rapids seem intimidating to you, you can take the alternative scenic float which takes you on a calmer stretch of the river. This option may be better for younger children.

Participants must be at least 6 years of age to attend. Waivers from Echo Canyon must be completed by June 5th. Wetsuits and splash jackets are available as needed.

Get ready for an incredible day filled with adventure and natural wonders!
