August is here

The river still offers good fun #rafting west of #Sundre. #Alberta is lucky to have a high quality river like the #RedDeerRiver.

This is the weekly posting of comparison of the water levels from one week to the next. Here is last weekends pictures compared to the previous weekends pictures. Small changes are happening. The river is clearing up and warming up (warm for this river anyway) adding to the pure outdoor experience one expects on a river trip.

It seems the talk on the oil spill that happened down stream of us has died away as the clean up continues and people realize it has nothing to do with Sundre. We are so lucky to have a clean river where we are. Here at Otter Rafting Adventures a pure, pristine mountain river adds to the experience.

Here are the photos for comparison. More of the ledge is being revealed every week. As you can see the Red Deer River is not in flood. A call came in today wondering about the safety of the river and was it high water still. The power of the media and telling only part of the story in their limited sound bites.

Absolutely stunning pictures! At what age would you say it is safe to bring children along? When we can start heading north on our adventures we hope to see you!
