River Expeditions
Camp & Raft! Overnight Scenic Splash (DR1)
The Details
Day 1 – Lunch & Dinner
You meet at Tag-A-Long's Moab ut office at 8:30 a.m. After a drive to the river, the expedition begins with a thorough safety discussion and instructions on handling your boat. This first day you'll have an opportunity to get into the river as we float through a nice calm water stretch. Watch for Mule deer, jackrabbit, Great Blue Heron and Ravens living in this riparian belt. You'll get basic paddling practice so you'll be ready for the rapids tomorrow. It is always fun to explore a sand bar and make mud castles. Tonight we will set up camp as guides teach you and your family how to pitch tents, and learn about other camp systems. Dinner is our treat, a surprisingly delicious outdoor meal prepared by your guides. In the meantime, family fun continues: play Frisbee, horseshoes, or just relax by the riverside.
Day 2 – Breakfast & Lunch
After a hearty breakfast, we'll hit the river and splash right into the bulk of the rapids today. The river rafting starts out small so you can slowly build your confidence. If you decide you don't want to paddle, you can always ride the support raft with the guide.
You'll enjoy more rapids, some more calm water and playful riffles. After lunch we arrive at our take-out point where vehicles will be waiting to drive us back to conclude an outstanding Moab adventure. You should arrive about 4:30 p.m. at the Tag-A-Long office.
