The Dead River's spring run-off and heavy water releases make for the best whitewater in New England. Cascade down 15 miles of almost continuous Class III-V whitewater, in rapids like Spencer Rips, Hayden's Landing, Elephant Rock, the Mine Field and the infamous Poplar Falls, the longest continuous rapid in Maine. The ride is exhilarating. There are only a few release dates available, and they quickly fill up, so make reservations early.
Each one-day Dead River whitewater adventure includes:
Only Company with Base Camp and Take Out on the Dead River.
Base Camp cookout after your trip.
Shuttle Bus transportation to the river.
Full use of all facilities including hot tub.
Slide and Video Presentation of your adventure.
