| RBC#04 Thompson & Fraser River |
| Day 01 |
| Combine the most exciting stretch of the lower Thompson with the grandeur and power of the Fraser Canyon and you have the best big-river whitewater package available anywhere. We meet at 8:30 am at our base camp in Yale. Choose either paddle or power for the first day on the Thompson River. Over 20 sets of rapids and a dry desert climate are the perfect match for a great time. At Lytton where the Thompson runs into the Fraser we move onto the larger power rafts in preparation for the next days big water. We camp over-night in the canyon where the beautiful blue waters of Nahatlatch joins the Fraser. Enjoy a delicious dinner that night. All meals are made with healthy, fresh ingredients, expertly prepared by our guides. Whether you're traveling alone or with a group, you'll enjoy our evening campfire get-together where you and your fellow travelers can swap stories of the day's adventures and prepare for the whitewater challenges that lie ahead. |

| Day 02 |
| Inspiring scenery, wildlife, remnants of the cariboo wagon road and the power of Hell's Gate are some of the highlights of the second day. We finish the expedition with the roller- coaster action of Sailor's Bar, a chain of 20 foot waves we rerun several times and return to Yale at around 4:30 pm in the afternoon. |
