R.A.C. SPENT THIS SEASON EXPANDING OUR OFFERINGS BEYOND DAY TRIPS. We believe the MAGIC OF THE RIVER happens best on overnight trips. We also believe that our investments are starting to pay off.

This season we have put more groups on the river for overnight trips than in all our previous 10 years COMBINED! To us, that shows there is a market for these kinds of trips. The photos below are from the last client we put on the river for his peaceful break from his busy life.

R.A.C. believes that the Susquehanna River (and many other local rivers and waterways) are best seen in “chunks” of two or three days. It’s an epic adventure…without being exhausting. It doesn’t take months to plan or take off work to execute. Just get out of work, get to our place, and we either begin the adventure when you arrive or not long after.

It takes time, to get on “river time”. To relax and “go with the flow”. To really get acquainted (or reacquainted) with the other people in your group. To take in the sunset and see the stars like you may have never seen them before over the dark river sky.

- The last trip was mainly a fishing trip, but there are so many ways to do it.

- The trip before that was a bunch of guys who have a tradition of getting together every year for some fun.

- The trip before that was a family and their dog.

R.A.C. is presently putting the final touches on an overnight adventure on the Susquehanna scheduled for September 12th. There will be limited seats (probably around 12). It will include at least two of our very experienced Guides, and an option for them cooking you an amazing meal at your overnight camping location.

The final details will be posted very soon, so if you are interested please message me now to reserve your space. Pricing is not set yet, but we will make it as affordable as possible as we would like it to sell out quickly.

SAVE THE DATE FOR NOW, MORE DETAILS TO COME VERY SOON!..

CLOSING FOR A WEEK TO TAKE A HIKE

From 8/26 to 9/1 we will have NO AVAILABILITY AT EITHER THE MONTOUR PRESERVE OR FOR RIVER TRIPS.

As you likely already know, at Riverside Adventure Company, we feel that we can’t Guide you in your outdoor Adventures, unless we too are outdoor Adventurers! If you don’t LIVE IT…you can’t OUTFIT IT!

So, we will see you when we get back on September 1st and hopefully we will have lots of amazing photos to share with you of this amazing place.

It’s a minimum of 40 miles of hiking, so we have been preparing for a while now. Temperature might be as high as 120º during the day and evenings have been in the 60º range. Last week, this trail had flooding (a couple went missing) and a crazed dude who tried to kill a woman on the trail. So, we are hoping Havasupai got all it’s crazy out last week, and will be relatively calm for us next week.

Either way, we WILL HAVE AN ADVENTURE, and we will share it with you upon our return to maybe inspire some of your next adventures!

Penn State fraternity boys are predicting improving river paddling conditions in coming days.

THIS IS AN AMAZING SECTION OF THE SUSQUEHANNA!

We have been putting people on this section all season for overnight and multi-day paddles. Also amazing for fishing and birding trips! Overnight trips and island camping on the Susquehanna can be MAGICAL!

If you want to benefit from our team of Guides vast knowledge and experience in this section of river: give us a call.

Putting something together for yourself, is possible, but as you get into it a little bit, you will realize it’s a little daunting. The logistics and “unknowns” can leave you feeling unsettled about the whole thing.

- where to park? Will our vehicles be OK?
- what islands are the “better” islands for our group size and experience?
- How do we approach these islands?
- what if we get there, and it’s already occupied…what then?
- river levels? Weather? Poison ivy? Oh my!

These and many other questions will run through your mind and haunt your dreams. Let us help.

Comment below, message, or call: 570-849-3010, and we will set you at ease, and take some of the logistical nightmares out of your way.

As always SPECIAL KUDOS TO SRTA for making these campsites possible. We appreciate all you do!
