That said, I am 72 years old and made it through reasonably unscathed. The rafting trip is pretty easy, though you are expected to paddle. When going through the rapids you have to listen for his commands to bring your paddle in and grab onto the handle for dear life. Careful of sunburn - if you don't slather on the sunscreen you'll get fried. The kayaking is a little more challenging. I almost fell out of the kayak twice, but was able to self-right with my paddle. The youngest in our group was 15 years old, and all the younger kids I saw on the trip handled it with no issues. The kayaks are inflatable with no real keel so they are a bit challenging to steer, so make sure you are up for the challenge before committing. I had a blast and would do it again in a heartbeat!!

I have a group of friends who do hiking trips together every few years, and this year we picked…read moreMorrisons Rogue River hike with support from guides on rafts. Booking the trip was relatively straightforward, but Morrisons highly encouraged us to do trip insurance because they don't offer refunds, which should've been the first red flag. Before I go too far, I do want to give a huge shout out to our guides Drew, Adam, and Johnny. They were amazing, and if I were rating just them, this review would be 5++ stars. They were friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely cared about us and our hike. The rest of the Morrison's staff...not so much. There was an active wildfire in the area before we started the hike. We talked to Morrison's several times in the days leading up to the trip (before we flew out) and even asked about rebooking the trip for a different time, when the forest in the area wasn't on fire. We were assured that even though they were planning a few modifications to our itinerary (i.e. at least one day of rafting instead of hiking), they were confident that it would be a wonderful trip. Fast forward to the end of day 2 of our trip...and they had to cancel the rest of the 4-day hike due to safety concerns and, ultimately, a mandatory evacuation. To be clear, I'm not upset that we were pulled out of the woods, as that was an obvious safety decision. I'm mad because we specifically asked about rebooking for different dates and were told no. Morrison's got us back to their main lodge the following morning, at which point they considered themselves done with us. There was no refund, no help finding rooms for the night, and the last lodge we were in literally wouldn't even let us use the bathroom in the hour we were waiting for vans to get us back to safety. Morrison's did at least send us all an official email about the trip cancellation so that we could share that with our travel insurance (if we'd purchased it) to try to get a refund, but that was about it. Morrisons also made the guides tell us, rather than having anyone higher up in the company talk to us. From what we can tell, they also didn't do anything to help their guides (e.g. helping them find lodging) once the trip was canceled. I will also add that I'm vegetarian, and although there was a lot of very tasty vegetarian food available, vegetarian protein was extremely scarce. For dinner the two nights we hiked (~9 mi on day 1 and 15 mi on day 2), there was no source of vegetarian protein for me to eat. (The gluten free and dairy free people fared much better.) It would've been so easy to roast a portobello mushroom the way they roasted salmon, or to do some kind of meat substitute when they did ribs (they did have meat substitute at the lunches, and eggs or veggie patties at breakfast). I had brought some protein powder with me, but not enough to make up for dinners without protein. My friends ended up giving me the protein bars they'd brought for themselves to try to make up for the dinners. To Morrison's: please consider all macronutrients (carbs, fat, AND protein) when planning meals for your guests! Overall, I would absolutely go back to the river with any of the guides, but I'll never use Morrisons again, and I recommend that you don't either.

If you ever considered doing a rafting trip. THIS IS IT. Rogue River is picturesque with just…read moreenough flat to make you appreciate the rapids and just enough rapids to make you appreciate the flat, with rapids variable enough to say "yeah, that was a 3-" by the end of the trip like you've been doing this not just three days. The best part of the trip was the crew! The crew - Kate, Nicole, Alec, Rachel, Ryan, Rudy, Cam - were all awesome and worked so very hard to make this trip incredible. As I was grumbling to myself that I had to get up at 7 am to drink my already-prepared coffee (with snacks) while waiting for my gourmet-level breakfast I didn't know was possible while camping - it occurred to me that the crew has already been up, have set up the breakfast snack table, brewed coffee, and are almost done with our breakfast. As I was grumbling about having to set up or put down the tent every day - I realized that the crew loaded and unloaded everything and set up camp and chairs before we even got to the site. They did all this without me noticing because the entire time they were friendly and kind and easy-going. These folks genuinely like being out, working together, on the river, sharing good vibes. If we could somehow bottle the enthusiasm, hard work, positive vibes they posses - all of world's problems would be solved. They set an excellent no non-sense (it *is* rapids and camping), fun, positive, uplifting and encouraging mood every single day. I felt safe under everyone's watchful eye. Everyone communicated clearly about what was expected from the river and from us (I'm an anxious person and this was such a big deal to me). Talking to other folks on this trip for whom this was not their first rafting adventure - apparently, once you go OARS, you don't go back. Seems like that company has figured out a way how to make great crews. Re-entering the real world has been tough. There's been 0 ospreys or bald eagles or turkey vultures (usually there's one or two or three somewhere around you on Rogue) on my morning walk and, dare I say - I miss "THE GROOVER". The most elegant, beautiful bathroom situation I have dealt with while camping. I also brought a semi-surly teenager against his will who, by the end, was begrudgingly "somehow" having a great time. This would absolutely not be possible without Kate, Nicole, Alec, Rachel, Ryan, Rudy, and Cam and the vibes they have set up. If I had all the money in the world, these guys would be flown out to anywhere they wanted to be so I can have rafting adventures with them there.. but for now, I just already want to go back to the Rogue and this time make it through the Coffee Pot without being thoroughly percolated.
