Coming from the west/Arcata and Highway 101: Head east on Hwy 299 from Highway 101. You will go through Willow Creek (and past our rental office there), keep going, you are halfway there. After another 45 minutes you’ll drive through the tiny rafting town of Big Flat and past the Strawhouse Cafe, keep going, you’re about 7 miles away now. After you pass the USFS Pigeon Point Campground/River Access and Bagdad River Access, and your phone starts working again, you know you are getting close. You’ll see our signs on the gate on the right, river side!
Coming from the east/Weaverville/Redding and Hwy 5: Head west on Hwy 299 through Weaverville and keep going over Oregon Mnt. You will go through the tiny town of Junction City, past the store and the last gas station. We’re another 5-10 minutes down the road on the left, at the end of a sharp corner. You'll see signs on the gate on the left, river side of the road. We are about 20 minutes from Weaverville, and about 1 hour 30 minutes from Redding (more if road construction). If you see the USFS Bagdad River Access or the Pigeon Point Campground/River Access, then you’ve gone a little bit too far.
Thank you for choosing Six Rivers Rafting for your whitewater adventure! We are very excited to make your trip special and fun. Please let us know prior to your trip if any participants have food allergies or special needs. ***
What to Wear on the River:
Weather in Northern California is generally warm and sunny in the summer months, but can be unpredictable in spring and fall, so please bring an extra layer of polypropylene or some type of wicking base layer and a fleece or wool for warmth on spring/fall days, both for on the river and at camp. In the spring and fall night temps can get down to 50 degrees or lower, so make sure you pack some warmth. All rafters should wear sandals that strap on your feet or tennis shoes/sneakers with rubber bottoms or river shoes, sorry but flip flops are not for whitewater trips, except at camp. Participants should wear clothes suitable for swimming during the day, as well as bring sunscreen and a refillable water bottle. Many people like to wear a ball cap, which can be worn under the helmets we provide, and sunglasses.
