The fun starts at 7:30am PHOTO BY: Jeff Wilson

Join us for a full day packed with guided Class IV rafting fun on the Big Water run of the lower Kern River! We will meet with the outfitter in Kernville on Sunday to raft all day on the wild and joyous lower Kern River. The river runs away headlong through a series of galloping rapids of ever-escalating intensity. In one place the canyon is completely choked with boulders and the rafts must be portaged around. As the homestretch draws near, the sinewy Kern explodes into gnashing, foam-filled eruptions of whitewater, 12 miles of excitement on Class III and class IV rapids! Delight in delicious lunch prepared by our guides (included in price). Return to LA Sunday evening.

Accomodations and meals other than lunch are on your own. You must be able to swim and willing to wear helmet. Mail check made out to Sierra Club for $194 for SC ($199 non SC, $189 for 12-18 year olds) to Silvia Darie.
