Illinois Rafting this weekend

Flows are looking great for the Illinois this coming weekend. Should be a good time. Predicted flows are at 3500 CFS! Whoohoo - it's stompy. Illinois River Rafting in Southern Oregon... it is hard to beat.

The Illinois is a tributary of the Oregon's Rogue River, which is one of the original 8 Wild and Scenic Rivers. It's a class III and IV river, but at high water definitely gets a class V feeling.

March 21-23, 2008 Illinois River Trip

What a wonderful weekend! We rafted the Illinois River in Southern Oregon and had great weather and good flows. There were six of us: Chip, Ursula, Creatch, Jen, Will, and myself. We had a really great time and even got the chance to explore a little bit. Rogue River Journeys let us base our trip out of their Selma guide palace and everything went very smoothly. Thank you RRJ!

We stayed at Pine Flat the first night and our second night at a beautiful waterfall camp about a mile below Collier Creek.

Here's a picture of our group at Pine Flat Rapid:
