1. On the float trips, you
may get knocked over by the beautiful scenery, but you will
not get knocked out of the raft. About ever second white water
trip, someone falls out but is usually hauled back on the
raft within micro seconds. On Kayak trips, you are pretty
much guaranteed to fall overboard, but its very easy to get
back on as they are inflatables.
2. No experience required. We provide full training before your journey so you can have just as much fun as experienced rafters.
3. Our guides are fully qualified and licensed river guides. Please click here to learn more.
4. You need to bring a swimsuit to wear under a MHRA wetsuit, warm socks for inside your wetsuit boots, a sweater, any medication you may use (i.e inhaler, insulin etc), dry clothes for after your journey and the balance of your payment to MHRA.
5. We provide all the fixins for a fun, warm and safe day on the river including wet suit, life jacket, spray jacket, wetsuit boots, helmet , paddle, rafts/kayaks, pre trip instruction and a qualified guide.
6. Prices vary based on the type of trip you have with MHRA. Please click here for our prices page.
7. There is
no chance of losing your glasses on the float trips, but on
white water trips, we recomend glasses straps which hang around
your neck. For contact users, clients have had little problems
losing or misplacing them.
8. The water can be cold at times, but you will not really notice during your time on the river as MHRA provides industry standard wetsuits which keep you nice and cozy in just about any conditions.

minimum age for the scenic float. b) 23 kg or 50 pounds is
the smallest size for white water rafting. Most eight year
old children wiegh at least this much. c) Twelve years is
the yougest we can take on the inflatable kayaking.
11. Lunch
on the river is a gorgeous buffet of fresh fruit, fresh baked
breads, cheese of all kinds, luncheon meats and various salads.
Grab a plate and build yourself the ultimate sandwich with
salads, fresh juice and polish it all off with some delicious
fresh fruit. Please let us know in advance if you require
something special based on your dietary concerns.
12. We have wetsuits up to
4 XL and they are very streachy. The limmiting factor is the
lifejacket which can expand to a 52 inch chest or waist. On
the Raging Elk Canyon there is a 10 minute hike to get to
the river which involved walking down about 300 steps.
