Team Extreme
Not every river trip is created equal and not everyone who rafts wants a conventional commercial rafting trip format. “Team Extreme” trips were designed for adrenaline junkies who want to push the limits of rafting by using a smaller boat and crew on our toughest runs. These trips are not for the faint of heart but are a terrific experience for all rafting aficionados.Team Extreme is pure adrenaline from start to finish with expert guides, smaller boats, and the most aggressive lines. It requires intense participation and an advanced rescue clinic prior to your trip. Chances of flipping are greatly increased.
Team Extreme trips are available in small 14' rafts with 6 paddlers (R6), or smaller 12' rafts with 4 paddlers (R4).
