The holidays are upon us, and many of our guides are departing for far-flung destinations. Our local rivers are quiet. Our office staff is enjoying a collective deep breath after a hectic 2009 U.S. season. I was inspired to ask several folks in the O.A.R.S...

O.A.R.S. - Whitewater Rafting Jim Geltz recently contacted O.A.R.S. about his October 6-day Cataract Canyon trip with members of the Sierra Club, the Tamarisk Coalition and the National Park Service. With O.A.R.S. providing rafts/gear/guides, the group worked to remove the invasive Tamarisk to restore riparian lands.

Jim had this to say: O.A.R.S. an...d the Sierra Club joined forces to assist the NPS with a tamarisk removal project on the Colorado River at Spanish Bottom in October. The result will be some fine new camping sites in a few years. Two major sites were cleared of fire charred tamarisk and tumble weed and groomed for restoration efforts including the planting of young cottonwoods next year.

In addition to a lot of fun for the 23 Sierra Club participants, the outing also produced funds for the Tamarisk Coalition, a non-profit organization helping coordinate tamarisk projects throughout the west.

All the partners agree, it was a great outing and plans are being drafted to do it again next year with the trip beginning on October 3, 2010.

Michael A McDonald If you enjoy adventure, water, and the outdoors, get into whitewater rafting. Do a few class twos & threes, then check out an Arkansas River whitewater rafting at the Royal Gorge in Canon' City, Colorado. LOTS more bang for your buck !!!

Good suggestion Michael. Although, there's certainly no shame in sticking with Class II & III rivers. There is much to be said for the family-friendly Rogue River in Southern Oregon, the Green River through the Gates of Lodore, Idaho's Hells Canyon of the Snake River, as well as the Main and Lower Salmon Rivers. For those wanting to stop up the ... See Moreadrenaline a notch... might we suggest California's North Fork Stanislaus, North Fork American, and Upper Klamath rivers, as well as the Tuolumne river in the spring? Utah's Cataract Canyon in the spring is also quite exciting! Shall we go on?
