Or real family adventures in wilderness surroundings. See our 'Rafting with Children' information for our recommendations. This is one of our wilderness trips where we actually carry all our overnight equipment down the river in waterproof bags. Private camp, with hot showers, volley ball and one of the closest locations to the Sacramento and Bay Areas. The first day is mellow with Class 2 white water rapids only and a step up to Class 3 on the second day.
Inflatable kayaks are usually available for the more adventurous.
Nice grassy, shady base camp located right on the river. A wonderful, semi-wilderness experience in N. California. Has fewer Class 3 rapids than the South Fork American, so very suitable for younger or more timid children. Camping in secluded, un-developed camps on the rivers edge. Inflatable kayaks are usually available for the more adventurous child or adult to share.
