About the trip
TRIP NOT 100% CONFIRMED. Look out for a message before 9am if the trip is cancelled or not, pending guide availability. Spots are strictly limited due to the number of guides available. If anyone pulls out, and you're on the waitlist I will contact you.
Beginner packrafting trip on the Picton. It should be a nice approachable level. Although this is a beginner trip, participants must be comfortable swimming in white water. White water experience of any variety is preferred. The day will be cold, and with more beginners on the trip, it will draw out. While packrafting you are far less protected from the cold water compared to rafting. So, warm layers are absolutely essential. No thermals - no paddling. Make sure you have warm socks and / or wetsuit socks.
Meeting at the Mount Nelson, Olinda Grove sheds at 9:30am. We should be back between 6 and 7 pm.
Bring snacks / lunch for on river, there is potential to stop in at Banjo's in the morning to stock up.
