2025– The Klamath Full Day trip is BACK!
Our new full day option will include the Copco (Kikaceki) valley, Wards (Kikaceki) canyon, and Iron Gate (Kucascas) valley and a great mix of everything from mellow to heart-pounding. We will arrive at access 1 in the morning to gear up and put on the river. A continental breakfast will be served and gear will be handed out as the guides get the boats ready for the trip. After we push off, the first 6.5 miles will meander through Copco (Kikaceki) valley. The scenery is beautiful and you will get to experience the healing of the river corridor year after year. It also gives us a chance to get ready for bigger water as we go over boat safety features, weight distribution, paddle commands and a time to get used to being in the raft. This warm-up makes the full day accessible to everyone from beginner to expert. As we get close to the entrance to Ward’s (Kikaceki) canyon, we will brush up on commands and double check everything in the boat. Entering the canyon is very spectacular. The views, the rapids and the pace are world class. Enjoying this special place is a top priority and we will try and slow things down a bit to look around and marvel. After 2.5 miles things open back up into Iron Gate (Kucascas) Valley. Here we will pick up our lunch and stop for a bathroom break at Kucascas access as well as pump up some inflatable kayaks for those interested. Lunch will be a mile down river at “The Pinch”. The remainder of the trip is in the Iron Gate reservoir footprint and 6 miles of class 2 and 3 with great current speed. Bush creek will be the end of the trip and we will pack everything up and head home.
