Hi my name is Bob and I'm a noob

[Bobinconifer]

Thanks for making this forum available.

I'm looking to do a 3-5 day packrafting trip during this first week of May. It'll be my first. Any experiences to share that I might get some beta from?

I'm an avid hiker, biker with some paddling skills and some climbing/rap skills.

Love to hear suggestions! Thanks.

Forrest McCarthy's "Candyland-8" look super sweet.
Roman Dial's Candyland-8 variation may be even better.

 

[Bobinconifer]

Thanks have you done either of those trips?

 

[moose droppings]

nah. haven't done any of the candyland rigs. i do know a handful of peeps that have though. my only experience has been redneck-packrafting the muddy chute and dirtydevil with a few side hikes mixed in.

this dude takes desert epic to a new level.
