Age Limit

First of all, I went by myself with 3 kids 10 & 13 years old. Big mistake! Mitchell said he will NEVER go again! It took Mitchell’s friend 15 minutes to learn how to even get on the tube and float but he did great and enjoyed himself! Cameron (13) LOVED IT!! He can’t wait to go again even though he flipped and almost lost his tube & glasses in some pretty heavy rapids. When Mitchell had an anxiety attack (seriously!) I knew I couldn’t let go of him again and we all held hands for the rest of our journey. At one point we got stuck going in different directions around a big rock. Cameron screamed that I was going to break his arm if I didn’t let him go. I had to but he had fun going through them after I released him.

Angelina (7) was begging me to go. I almost caved but my Dad said “No Way!” Good thing she didn’t! My Dad grew up camping and fishing the river. He knows it! By the way, he will be the only guy with us that weekend as our tour guide and tent setter-upper. LOL. Back to Angie wanting to go: I wouldn’t suggest anyone under 10 tube with us. A little girl, about Angie’s age, was on her dad’s lap in a big tube and she cried the whole way! I felt so bad for her. And him! A rule of the river really is: LIFE JACKETS are advised for all. CHILDREN under 12 and 100 lbs must wear them.
