Top 5 Rapids on the Middle Fork American River

[@Haonlol]

I just did all of these today! So much fun and would love to go back, and I loved tunnel chute!

[@AOrafting]

Love to hear it, it's addicting!! What was your favorite?

[@Haonlol]

@@AOrafting I would have to say tunnel chute

[@AOrafting]

@@Haonlol Yeah, it's pretty hard to beat. Hope to see you back out there soon!

Ive rafted the south fork both guiding and passenger dozens, if not hundreds of times now. Were doing the middle fork this weekend with another guide buddy of mine. Looking forward to it! Call us crazy, but 3 of us will not be portaging ruck a chucky. Wish me and the boys luck!

[@AOrafting]

Godspeed, hang on tight and stay in the boat! Hope you guys have fun!

1:49 I recognize this from George of the Jungle stunt scene at the end where George rescues Ursula!

[@AOrafting]

Good eye! It's such an iconic spot, and is actually quite popular to film in after George of the Jungle came out. Come rafting and see it for yourself!

[@Paolo-qe7lc]

@@AOraftingIt looks intense! I remember that being one of the most intense scenes in George of the Jungle. Maybe I will.

[@AOrafting]

@@Paolo-qe7lc Definitely hit us up if you do! It's really fun, but not quite as intense as the movie made it seem. Plus, it's a bit nicer when you're in a raft, with a highly trained guide and industry leading safety gear!

favorite rapid was salamander's revenge

[@AOrafting]

Not sure we know that one, but there are a few different names for rapids on the river. Glad you've gotten to experience it!

[@gorillavr5022]

My uncle is going to take me on the middle fork next. Year

[@AOrafting]

That's awesome, you're going to love it!

[@pete3713]

Would you recommend the middle fork for people who are not quite athletic?

[@AOrafting]

Hey Pete! The Middle Fork is definitely a step up from the South Fork, and will require everyone in the boat to paddle. You don't have to be a marathon runner by any means, but if you're a decently active person, you should be fine. Your best bet would be to give our office a call and talk to them directly. They're very good at discussing and determining these cases. Hope to see you out there!

[@counselorLA]

I’m not the most athletic and I’m extra fluffy the hiking at rucky chucky is kinda a challenge but we all took our time and had a blast!

[@AOrafting]

@@counselorLA Glad you made it out there!

[@ceriaadventure]

Sungai yang sangat bagus.saya sangat ingin mencobanya.

[@AOrafting]

Kami ingin sekali berarung jeram bersama Anda di sini!

[@benjamindbailey]

Does the guide sometimes R1 the rapid Rakashuki Falls while the guests portage?

[@AOrafting]

Sometimes guides with other outfitters will do that, but ours do not. We want to minimize risk for everyone, not just our guests, and believe that sending the guide down solo presents avoidable and unnecessary risk!

[@Matkatamiba]

Were the chapter names autogenerated or an easter egg?

[@AOrafting]

Nice eye, they were actually autogenerated!

[@joshkelly3743]

Most of us just R1 ruckachucky

[@AOrafting]

Yeah, that's pretty typical, we just choose to portage it entirely. It's fun to watch people R1 it though!

[@Hellbender21]

Taking my kids 11 and 13 this summer. Hopefully i don't traumatize them too bad.

[@AOrafting]

Haha, that's the perfect age, they'll love it, and we look forward to seeing you all out there! Are you running the Middle Fork or another river?

[@Hellbender21]

@@AOrafting middle fork. Two day float with your company. Very impressed so far.

[@AOrafting]

@@Hellbender21 Appreciate it! The two day trip is definitely the way to go. As the social media manager, I've personally had the opportunity to raft all of the trips that we offer, and while they're all fun, the 2 day Middle Fork trip is my personal favorite. Have a blast out there!

[@Hellbender21]

Just got back to Missouri from our trip. We rated July 2nd and 3rd. Wyatt was our guide and was great. All of the other guides seemed to be as well. Great cooks, very knowledgeable, positive and hard working. My kids and I are hooked for sure. Top notch company.

[@AOrafting]

@@Hellbender21 Thanks so much, we're so glad you all made the trek and chose us to raft with. Wyatt is a class guide, as is the whole crew. We loved meeting you all, and hope to see you back out here soon!
