Reader Comments on Class V Whitewater Rafting on the Dead from YankeeMagazine.com http://www.yankeemagazine.com/rss/index.php Wed, 20 Aug 2008 17:14:13 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 http://www.yankeemagazine.com/blogs/skiblog/harvard I've always wanted to go white water rafting. Any place in Mass that you suggest? Yankee Publishing (rss@ypi.com) Fri, 16 May 2008 15:40:28 +0100 http://www.yankeemagazine.com/blogs/skiblog/harvard Hi Priscilla!! I've never been rafting in MA, but Stephen Jermanok just wrote about a raft trip on Deerfield River in northwest MA in the March/April issue of Yankee - http://www.yankeemagazine.com/issues/2008-03/travel/familyadventure/whitewater rafting. Some other rides in MA - http://www.zoaroutdoor.com/drguide.htm. Looks like fun, huh? Yankee Publishing (rss@ypi.com) Mon, 19 May 2008 15:11:07 +0100 http://www.yankeemagazine.com/blogs/skiblog/harvard As a summer camper in Maine many years ago, we spent 10 days on the Dead River (or maybe some other river and then the Dead River?) in aluminum canoes. I am sure that water was not class V, but it was still a tough trip. We wrapped two of our five canoes around rocks (could they still be there?) and one of our counselors had to be picked up at one of the few road junctions because he was sick. It's reassuring to know that rugged, wilderness adventures like these are still available in New England. Yankee Publishing (rss@ypi.com) Tue, 10 Jun 2008 18:06:40 +0100
