Wave of whitewater rafting in western US

Saturday, 21 Jun, 2005 0

Favorable water conditions and rising temperatures are leading many American travelers to whitewater rafting trips this year, say authorities.

Said David Brown, executive director of America Outdoors:

“We’ve seen an upsurge in business this season, especially in the western states where rivers are brimming with water.”

He added:

“The season got off to a slow start in much of the east due to a cool spring, but with temperatures rising outfitters are seeing a spike in their reservations.”

America Outdoors is a leading association of outfitters with members in 43 states and 50 foreign countries.

A free, four-color directory of active travel vacations is available at www.adventurevacation.com.
