Middle Fork American River Rafting - Mariah Wilderness Expeditions

MIDDLE FORK AMERICAN RAFTING IN PRISTINE WILDERNESS

Rafting the Middle Fork of the American River you will experience rapids from Class II to Class IV+ whitewater.  This is the river with the Class V rapid: the infamous Tunnel Chute. Here the river drops through a narrow, churning whitewater chute leading down to a flat water tunnel through a narrow ridge blasted by miners in the 1850s. The result is an exciting roller coaster ride with a huge adrenaline rush. You may enjoy a one-day trip where you raft the entire 18 miles in one day. Or, get your friends together for a wilderness overnight. We need a minimum of 12 persons to do the overnight trip.

Middle Fork 1-Day Rafting Trips

The Middle Fork American River and its famous Class IV+ Tunnel Chute rapid is perfect for adventurous first-timers or intermediate rafters who are in good physical condition. A step up from the South Fork, the Middle Fork is located near Auburn and flows through a stunning, remote wilderness canyon 2,000 feet deep featuring tall, sheer-faced rock walls and lush pine forests. We meet you in the town of Auburn the morning of your trip; however, for a small additional fee, consider following us back to our South Fork Campground at the end of the trip to enjoy hors d'oeuvres, dinner, campfire and camping

Middle Fork & South Fork 2-Day Combo

Spend two days rafting on two different rivers for a total of 29 river miles. The challenging Middle Fork of the American River leaves you tired and feeling proud of yourself by the end of the day. We drive back to our base camp on the South Fork, where the guides pamper you with hors d'oeuvres, wine-tasting, and a scrumptious dinner. The next morning we raft the Chili Bar stretch of the South Fork, arriving back in camp by noonish for a hearty BBQ lunch. We also do this trip in reverse.
