North Fork American River Rafting

NORTH FORK, SOME OF THE BEST TECHNICAL WHITEWATER RAFTING IN CALIFORNIA

Plummeting out of the Desolation Valley basin near Lake Tahoe lies the free-flowing North Fork of the American River with some of California's most exciting rafting and springtime technical rapids. The challenge: the upper stretch of river has an average gradient drop of 50' per mile through a steep and narrow granite canyon for spectacular whitewater and great vistas to gaze at when we have a moment! The turns on this adventure trip are tight and technical and Chamberlain Falls is a thrilling drop that you will not soon forget!!
