WATERY WEDNESDAY - RIVER






We took a hike down the Wild and Scenic Rogue River. This is the stretch of river that has no roads to it and rafters start here for about a 3 day float to a town called Agnes (Just a general store). Which is about 20 miles from where the Rogue River goes into the Pacific Ocean at Gold Beach Oregon. There are only trails along each side of the river. We hike about 4 miles. Each rafting group must get a permit as only a certain number of people are allowed to make this trip each year. The trip is about 50 miles by raft with some very nice rapids to go through.

Have a great day and be sure to visit all the wonderful watery wednesday posts.
