wHY TRAVEL ABROAD TO PACKRAFT?
The United States is stacked with fantastic rivers. But many run seasonally, are nearly impossible to get permits for, or are inaccessible in the winter. We wanted to extend your paddling season and also offer you the possibility of doing longer, more involved adventures in remote locales (Patagonia & Mexico) or to simply paddle a lot of super fun whitewater in a warm setting for a long week in the winter (Costa Rica). Paddle in the jungle, among glaciers or through canyons 1000-feet deep 🤩
