TIP: Since weather conditions can be unpredictable and river water in the Grand Canyon is 52°, we recommend having a two-piece rainsuit available during the day. You may wish to fold it tightly and keep it in your personal day-use dry bag. (See recommended packing list).
This was an incredible trip, full of firsts! My first helicopter ride, first time whitewater rafting, first time sleeping in the open under the stars and seeing the Milky Way! The guides were the best! Very knowledgeable and helpful, kind, and very good cooks! We did a lot of laughing! I enjoyed every minute, and hope to come back for the 6-day trip soon!
