What if you are a family with young children that would have to sit out the class 3 & 4 rapids on our whitewater trip? We are here to help! This trip offers an awesome opportunity for the whole family to get out on the water and experience the thrills of whitewater in a safe and fun way.

We can hear you asking already; “What the heck is a duckie?” A duckie is a 10 foot long inflatable whitewater kayak. They are stable, easy to navigate and fun to paddle. If you have never been in one, it is something you just have to try.

So whether it is the beautiful river side views winding through dense northern forests, or the gentle roar of exciting whitewater rapids, this trip will not disappoint!

Trip Description

Your adventure starts at True North Outpost where you will check in and meet your guide. While at the outpost you will have an opportunity to change and grab everything you need before heading out to the river. Once your guide goes over all the pre-trip info and fits you with lifejackets and helmets, you will all hop in our river shuttle and head out. In the shuttle your guide will go over a few rules, give you a description of the trip and answer any and all questions you may have. After a short drive, we will park at Sailor’s Point boat launch, where your guide will get all of your duckies in the water and make sure everyone is comfortable with their boat and equipment.

Once on the water it is an easy 4 mile flatwater paddle. The first 4 miles a river will wind you through dense northern forests, where you will have the chance to learn how your duckie moves, swim in the cool water or just take in the sights. After the flatwater section you will come to a bend in the river where you will see an island and hear the class 2 whitewater section known as Quiver Falls.

It is here where your guide will get everyone out of the water before the rapids and give you all the opportunity to go look at them before you paddle them in your duckie. Once you scout out the rapids it is back in the boats to go experience the thrills of Quiver Falls. After you are through this short whitewater playground you have options. You can walk back up the short trail with your boat and run them as many times as you want. Or if once is enough for you there is a small beach area where you can swim and relax and watch others go through the rapids. There is even the option if time allows to explore Peme Bon Won Island across from Quiver Falls.

After your adventure, it’s back in the shuttle for the short drive back to the outpost where you will have the opportunity to change into dry clothes, check out the outpost, get ready for your next awesome true north outpost adventure or head out on your next journey. Either way the memories, laughs and thrills of this trip are sure to stick with you for a long time to come.
