Rafting & AdventuresThe PackagesPackage #1 One-Day Legendary Thompson River
This package includes the legendary BIG WATER of the Thompson River and is Kumsheen's most popular rafting package! The river snakes through hot, desert-like country (325 blue-sky days every year), mixing calm stretches with huge whitewater action. Lurking in the last 16 km (10 miles) above Lytton are 18 heart-thumping rapids with chilling names like the Jaws of Death, Devil's Kitchen, Witches Cauldron and Washing Machine. Sometimes the 15-foot waves tower above you before crashing down like a frothing green locomotive. Discover a new dimension of excitement; find out for yourself why this trip is B.C.'s most popular whitewater run and why the Thompson's rapids are the stuff of legends. Includes: Day use of resort amenities, shuttle transportation from our Lytton resort to the rafting put-in at Spences Bridge, and from the rafting take-out back to the resort; 40 km of rafting excitement; lifejackets; rain gear; great whitewater action; guide stories enroute; hearty riverside lunch; personalized river rat certificate.

Package #2 Two-Day Rafting Getaway
Float through stunning, desert-like badlands - sagebrush, ponderosa pine, prickly pear cactus - and over fifty sets of rapids with your classmates on this two-day windup celebration. The first day is highlighted by Black Canyon, a 150 million year old sedimentary canyon wall with a powerful rapid in its gorge and a Golden Eagle as sentinel on it cliffs. There is good whitewater enroute but also easy drifting to Spences Bridge. From Spences Bridge you are bussed to the Kumsheen Rafting Resort for a buffet dinner, fun at the resort, and a stay over. On day 2, after a hearty breakfast in the morning, you are shuttled back to the rafts at Spences Bridge for more of the river's legendary rapids. The Devil's Gorge begins at The Frog rapid and finishes at the Jaws of Death, the seventh rapid in the series. You run eleven more great rapids before arriving at the river takeout in Lytton. For two days that will waken all your senses, bond your class, and create memories that will last for a lifetime, choose this package.
