Expedition Difficulty
Personally, when I’m choosing my next rafting trip, I factor in how much difficulty I’m looking for. Some expeditions are more relaxed, which are great for times when I’m not looking for anything dramatic. They provide gorgeous views and a great experience. However, there are other times when I want a real challenge, which is when I’ll opt for a more advanced expedition with steeper chutes and complex routes.
Difficulty, Location, and Scenery
I like to switch it up, so I’ll consider the difficulty of the rafting as well as the views of the location. If I recently did some intense white water rafting, I’ll likely choose a calmer river for my next trip. I’ll also try to pick new places to try or at least places with different scenery than my most recent trips. This gives me an excuse to travel more and visit new places.
Weather Conditions
When deciding to go for a rafting excursion, the weather plays a crucial role. While rafting, I usually keep an eye on the weather because it can quickly change from sunny to cloudy. It’s mostly about the addition of clothes that we can pack ahead of time, rather than the weather conditions suitable for rafting. Keeping some warm clothing on hand is always a good choice.
