This trip is for everyone and is about two hours long
6 - 7 hour Canyon Skilak Lake Trip
This rafting trip takes you through the whole Kenai National Wildlife Refuge. The class two waters are just enough to excite you, and the scenery will let you know you are definitely in Alaska. You will have opportunities to see some Alaska wildlife: eagles, bear, salmon, Dahl sheep, moose, water fowl and maybe a wolf or fox. This trip is for everyone.
However, not far away is Six Mile Creek, (class five) for those heavy duty rafters and thrill seekers.
There are age and physical ability requirements for this trip. Paddling participation is required. Minimum age is normally 16 however if you are on a swimming team or in water polo or other related sports they may make an exception.
Rafting is a mainstay of the Cooper Landing area and Drifters Lodge can make it happen for you, all you have to do is say I want to go and the rest will be your own story. |
