It was great to see you folks out there, and now to read what a good time you had. A limited commercial rafting pilot project was supposed to start this year on the Electra-Middle Bar run, but it was stopped by the sequester. We hope it starts next year and that OARS gets one of the slots in the trial. It's their "home river," in a way, since they're based in Angels Camp, and as you laerned, they're super nice people. The beach, BTW, is often called "Box Beach," but I've been told by old-timers that its real name is "Vaught's Beach." Don't know the origin. Take care and enjoy the river!Katherine Evatthttp://www.foothillconservancy.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1170972260275595837.post-78458714536490901862013-07-12T12:06:56.980-07:002013-07-12T12:06:56.980-07:00Enjoyed the trip along with you because of your de...Enjoyed the trip along with you because of your descriptions. I know the screaming in the rapids because I hear it a lot from those on our river below! What a great way to spend the day and possibly help to protect your river.

Thanks for the reminder - I better do it soon or I really will be too old. I'm sure if I take a grandchild I can pretend to be brave long enough to fool myself.

My white water raft trips have been down the Snake River, and there was plenty of "Yahoooooo!"

I for one love water but going down a river on a boat and down rapids I am not sure I could do it. The photos are great and I am glad you enjoyed yourself. Have a blessed day.
