Wilderness Camping Trips, Class IV-V

Middle Fork American Two Day Trip
This run starts with a bang within seconds of getting in the boat with several class III rapids that will get you ready for The Class V Rapid Tunnel Chute, named for the tunnel through a rock that we will float through at the bottom of this exciting rapid. Your day continues with several class IV rapids as we raft deep into the wilderness. The middle section of this run mellows out and allows for swimming and relaxing before we pull over in the wilderness of the middle fork canyon to camp. Delicious food will be prepared for you and your friends and family on the riverbank. The second day starts relaxed in the calm middle portion of the run before dropping into a second set of class four rapids to the end of the run. This run is available as a strenuous one day trip, but the pace of the two day camping trip makes it perfect.
