I received some good news today on midweek shuttles. Jen will be able to drive for us on Tuesdays & Thursday for a bit more time. Thanks Jen!! This will give us the ability to shuttle 7 folks on our 9:00 Chili Bar, 11:30 & 4:30 Gorge runs. In the meantime I am still actively looking for a driver for Mondays & Fridays.
YES – We are in operation during Covid-19 with guidelines to protect you the rider & our drivers. All riders are required to sign our Covid waiver, must bring and wear a face mask while in the van at all times. We ask that you help follow the rules that are in place so that we may continue to run. To read our policy on Covid click here
Also at this time we are actively searching for a midweek driver to cover the month of August. It has been a rather trying time finding extra drivers we hope you can understand.
Weekends are selling out due to the limited number of seats per van run (7) so book your shuttles early to get your seat.
Thank you for keeping us on the road we hope to see you soon.
This is the last weekend September 29th for the season where we run our shuttles with no minimum number of riders. Starting Oct 1st all shuttles on the road will require to meet our minimum number of 4 paid riders. Also this month our river flow is changing again. There will be water on Friday, Saturday, Sunday & Mondays 9-12 and 1300 cfs. This shorter flow will make full river runs harder.

Call us at 530-303-2404 to see what we need to do it get it going. Thanks, folks for a great summer and we look forward to shuttling you into the fall 2019.

The old saying “The Proof is in the Pudding” rings loud and clear here. This weekend January 5th-6th, 2019 it was raining and cool out. But that did not stop the kayakers from going out and enjoying their day. I had shuttles on both days and even noticed many more boaters doing their own shuttles.
