*High Country Rafting = awesome
Hypothermia = not so awesome
*Disclaimer: when you hear "High Country Rafting" you may be led to believe we were rafting through whitewater, running rapids and drop-offs. This however is NOT what rafting down the Provo is like. It would be more accurately called Leisurely Country Rafting or Lethargic Country Rafting. Nevertheless, we had a great time. The views of the mountains and valleys were beautiful and we even got to see some wildlife. At one point a herd of horses
was gathered at the edge of the river, lapping up some water. It was incredibly peaceful and we hope to return and try kayaking down the river. The one thing we did not anticipate was how DANG cold the water is. After spending my summers swimming in Lake Michigan I figured it couldn't be any worse... HOLY MOLY was I wrong! Rory shivered the last half hour of the trip even though it was 90 degrees out. Maybe next time we'll get some wetsuits.
