We have the white water rafting trip planned.

As I posted, Brenda an I are going to do this. I am prepared to make reservations soon.
I have no information on which of the numerous companies are better than others, but the rates vary from $41 to $55 for a full day. They all do the "Fisher Towers" area of the river, and all offer lunch.
The least expensive one is World Wide River Expeditions with the full day at $41 per person. They offer a group rate for 8 or more at $37 per person (plus tax @ 6%) RATES

I have spoken to Steve, the owner of this outfit, and since we are all spread out, he would be willing to give us the group rate (with 8 or more) and set it up so that you can call him and arrange payment individually.

Just tell him you are part of the Xterra Owners Club.

So, Wdnesday 5/24 for this outing.

Wouldn't mind. Depends on the $$$$

Yeah, might be interested.

Yeah we did a one day guided rafting trip the 1st year we went and had a blast, couple of outfits in town offer them from mild floats to more wild with some rapids.

I dig rafting and would go but I think my kids are too small/young for the guided companies so it would have to make some arraignments for them so don’t count me in for that.

This is something I might be up for as well. I was thinking of something like this on Wed,, which is the Moab rim day with locker required ( My X is not locked). Besides, my wife will need a break by then...lol.
Looks like a full day raft trip is $53 per person, and morning half day is $39.
Canyon Voyages Adventures

Full day at Mild to Wild is $49 per person

I was thinking the same thing! Wednesday is a nice mid week break. I love 4 wheeling/rock crawling, but a rafting trip would be a nice simple diversion.

Story on CNN online today mentioning this.

Features a company called Adrift Adventures; half-day $36

Could be fun for us Easterners, as well.

Hmmmmm........

I'd be in for $50.

I'm in if it comes together... driving from Texas I'll be ready for a fun break from my truck!!!!

Talked with the wife and she is in, so the 2 of us are a go. Definately going to do this on Wednesday.

Put me down! If you have a number I can call and make reservations for myself or just you make the reservation and I / we can call and give CC info.

Let me speak with my father and see if this would interest him. I would like to do it.

Hey 2 Explore THANK YOU! We will have a white water rafting party.

I called Steve today. I am wondering if we can make this post a Sticky???

Mark

Filled out the reservation request for Bren and I, so we are good to go.
mark, you might edit your initial post with the trip detail links, and list those that commit to going. We need 8 min for the $37 rate.

Anyone else?

I am awaiting an answer from one of the SXFC members coming with to see if he really wants to do this.

Sorry for the delay. What is the count up to right now?

Count me in. All I need to do is call 1-800-231-2769, tell them that I am with the Xterra Owners Club and register. Correct?

mountain lion

"The California Mountain Lion" (I am coming from Northern California)

I am registered and hope to get Abiel to register too

When I called, Nikki had me fill out the Online Reservatiion Form , and she emailed me all of the information (invoice, registration form, waiver) as .pdf files. I just had to call her with a credit card number.
In the comment section of the reservation form, I just put that we were part of Xterra Owners Group.

Need a current head count, so post up how many in your party.
My wife and I, so "2"

Brian (aka XToolbox) and myself talked about going with the group as well. We have kids in tow so we are working out details like sitters. We'd like to both be included as highly probable.

Just keep in mind that the advanced run on Wednesday is Moab Rim.
