The Middle Fork of the American River is the one of the best summertime Class IV whitewater rafting trip in California. This trip meets at 8:15 AM in Auburn. A 45 minute van ride dead ends at Oxbow Reservoir where gear is distributed and the stoke begins. H2O hits your face early with Good Morning rapid. A warmup is immediately needed as the infamous Tunnel Chute rapid is just over a mile downstream. After five miles of good class 3/4 whitewater, the river settles down and provides opportunities for rock jumping, surfing, and ‘riding the bull’ as we float through the canyon towards a riverside lunch stop. Following lunch the river complies with our need to digest and remains calm for a few more miles until arriving at Chunder Pond. From here the river changes drastically with rapids such as Chunder Falls, Parallel Parking, and Ski Jump bringing your adrenaline to a high again. A mandatory walk around Ruck-A-Chucky falls allows for a chance to watch your guides run their raft down a commercial class 6 waterfall. Your trip concludes at the old Greenwood Bridge site. Guests are returned to their vehicles around 4:00 PM. For more information or to book this activity, click here.

From these hills we’ll have amazing views of the desert valley floor all the way up to the majestic mountains that surround Palm Springs. I’ll point out & talk about the plants & how the Cahuilla people used them for medicine. We’ll stop and visit the best viewpoints along the way & enjoy some of the best views of the Coachella Valley, perfect for taking pictures. We’ll see the windmills, Joshua Tree National Park, the San Jacinto Mtns, Mt Gorgonio (the tallest mtn. in So Cal at 11,503 ft.), Palm Springs & other desert cities that make up the Coachella Valley. Next we’ll head downhill into a small hidden Palm tree oasis that’s in a canyon, not in Indian Canyons. (See my Indian Canyons hike). During the winter the endangered Peninsular Bighorn Sheep come down to the desert to give birth, hopefully we’ll see some if you’re here then, I’ve seen them here before.
