Whitewater Rafters and Kayakers KAYAKERS - LOCAL KNOWLEDGE IS CRITICAL HERE - GET SOME ADVICE BEFORE YOUR FIRST TRIP! The lower Clearwater River is a mecca for Whitewater fans. Three rafting companies Liquid Lifestyles, Riverside Adventures and Interior Whitewater Expeditions offer Guided trips, half day to multi day, through world class whitewater and mind blowing scenery. A must do experience on any Wells Gray Wilderness trip. Preteens to Grandparents, everyone is welcome. Whitewater kayakers need to know their limits, as the Clearwater River has chewed on more than a few boats and people. Make friends at the local raft companies to find out what the conditions are like, and what you need to know. Kayaking lessons are available locally as well, if you want to give this high adrenaline sport a try. Boaters Boaters have access to Clearwater, Azure and Mahood Lakes. All three are suitable for overnight camping trips, but not really for water sports. Personal watercraft (Jetskis or Seadoos) are banned outright, and water skiers have found conditions too cold and driftwoody for much fun. This does leave lots of room for great fishing and some wonderful overnight camping opportunities. Make sure you have your camping fees and licences in order as all lakes are patrolled daily by parks staff. Check lake specific pages for more info. |
