“There’s Gold in Them Thar’ Hills!” Adventure Raft Company is now offering a family friendly raft adventure that includes instruction on the basics of gold panning and a guided river float trip down a Class I-III section of the Skykomish River. Step back in time to the turn of the century and try your hand at the art of gold panning!
Your trip begins with a River Safety Talk which prepares paddlers of all ages for their adventure. After a brief introduction to basic gold panning techniques you’ll have plenty of time to try it yourself and discover your own treasures. Our guests regularly find real gold flakes (yours to keep, of course!) and even if the pans turn up empty, you’re sure to catch the contagious “gold fever” anyway! On the water your guide will entertain you with local history, water games, and pirate songs! You’ll also enjoy the unparalleled beauty of the Cascade Mountain peaks, clear creeks, and rugged shoreline. These jagged mountaintops, wild streams, and wooded country are what drew the early miners to this wilderness valley in search of gold. Come be a part of history!
This unique family adventure is designed for kids as young as 6 and includes a guide, rafting gear, snacks, gold panning equipment, and instruction.
