So anyway, Saturday we drove up to Auburn which is an old mining town about a half hour away and got on a bus to go to the river. I kind of started freaking out when we got there and they gave us helmets to wear and told us to save ourselves if we fell out! The rapids were class 3 and 4 and there was one class 5 that they actually made us get out of the boats and hike around because it was so gnarley! At certain points I was literally afraid for my life. There was some serious adrenaline rush going on. It ended up being such a fun trip though! Props to Jeff for a great anniversary!
Here's some pictures of the biggest rapid we rode called Tunnel Chute. These aren't actually pictures of us (our waterproof camera got ruined in the water - who would've thought) I found them online, but it is the same rapid we went down.
