Peaksandposes is heading out on a unique day trip of whitewater rafting in the Southern Adirondacks of New York!! Woohoo!! You'll be in the good hands of Beaver Brook Outfitters for an amazing adventure. Even with all the rapids and paddling, you will be surprised how quiet and serene this trip will be. Beaver Brook provides lunch and the proper gear to keep you safe and warm. All you need to bring is your adventurous spirit. Also Included in the weekend are 2 short hikes. 

Friday: After you arrive at the Llama House ADK and unpack, we'll take advantage of the longer hours of daylight and head out for a short sunset hike right from the hostel. Afterward, there's chilling out by the fire or getting cozy in your bedroom. 

Saturday:: After a homemade breakfast, we will take a short drive to the outfitter's spot, get our wet suits, helmets, etc, and hop on their bus to get down to the river. Our trip will include approximately 6-8 boats with 8 people on each boat. Our day will truly be a unique super fun and exciting experience through the Hudson River Gorge with places to swim, jump off rocks, and have lunch. The guides are fun and cool (Dave, the hostel owner, is one of them). 

After rafting, we'll meet back at the hostel for showers, a home-cooked dinner, and fun around the campfire. 

Sunday:: We'll gather for a home-cooked breakfast and drive to Crane Mountain for a short loop hike (3.2 miles). Natural stone bridges, cliff ladders, and a spring-fed mountain ridge pond with spectacular views. We'll either drive back to the hostel or say our goodbyes at the trailhead.
