Last weekend on the river

Yes, the rafting season has come to an end in #Alberta. Here are the final pictures of Coal Camp Ledge on the Red Deer River of the series that started in May.

The sequence follows the rivers cycle throughout the summer season. Every Sunday the photos were taken and they show how the river has changed in the previous week.

The photos start with ice on the river and is starting to melt. There is very little water flow. The photos end as there is no more melt happening at the headwaters of the Red Deer River. Essentially ice is forming up at the higher elevations and we have reverted back to very little water flow.

It would be interesting to be able to show how the river has changed though out the season, where there have been very dramatic changes to the river’s path but the inaccessibility of the river makes it difficult.

Here are the photos from last weekend and the previous weekend.

Board Again?

Some pictures off the board at Otter Rafting Adventures here in #Sundre, #Alberta. How to have FUN outside of #Calgary #Edmonton .

We have had the white boards up at Otter Rafting Adventures for several years and have received so many compliments on the operation. It is easy to be a part of something that is fun all the time.

Reading the comments on the board you can see that every day is a good day – not even if the weather is uncooperative.  Can you think of another way to be outside in the rain and not even care? Here are two boards of comments collected over the last few trips. The most rewarding part of offering the rafting tours is making sure that everyone has a wonderful day!
