Splash in and suit up to discover Montgomery Whitewater and Canopy Ridge! With the help of a raft guide, you and fellow Girl Scouts will experience an action-packed whitewater rafting trip, and new this year, participants will traverse the Canopy Ridge zipline and ropes course. Your registration includes a bundle pass for Whitewater Rafting and the Canopy Ridge Traverse along with a custom fun patch.
Canopy Ridge is an aerial high ropes course where participants
navigate a series of elevated obstacles and ziplines. Canopy Ridge
features two separate zipline courses with 16 elements and 7 zipline
segments that range from 50 to 165 feet long. This self-navigating
course typically takes 90 minutes to complete; however, this time
frame may vary based upon skill level and group size.
Please Note: Manufacturer safety guidelines require all Canopy
Ridge Traverse participants to be between 75 and 275 lbs. All
participants must be weighed at check-in and have a reach height of 6'.
As for the rafting, the man-made channels mimic a natural river
perfect for beginners to intermediate paddlers. The 2,200-foot-long
Creek Channel is designed for a Class II whitewater experience and is
an excellent introduction to whitewater. A step up from the Creek
Channel, the 1,600-foot-long Competition Channel is an incredible
playground for those with more advanced skills and is ideal for even
the novice rafter looking to take on bigger rapids. Both channels
intersect in the lower pond to the takeout or back up the conveyor
belt for another run! Rafts can hold up to 6 paddlers and the raft
guide. Larger groups than 6 can be split into separate rafts.
The ability to swim is not required to whitewater raft but is
highly recommended. Participants will wear a life vest and helmet at
all times while on the water. Although there is no maximum weight
limit for whitewater rafting, all guests must be able to fit in a life
vest which allows for a 55" limit chest size.
If you plan on whitewater rafting, plan to get completely wet!
Make sure to wear a bathing suit and bring a change of clothes. Secure
water shoes are required (no Crocs). Montgomery Whitewater offers
rental shoes and shoes for purchase in the outfitter store. There is a
small changing area in the bathrooms at Base Camp and an area at the
Raft Barn, with free lockers available for your valuables.
Tagalongs are welcome to watch from dry land at no cost! It is
free to enter Montgomery Whitewater, and there is a restaurant on
property with food and drinks available for purchase. Participants
will need to provide their own lunch. There will be a designated lunch
break between scheduled rafting and ropes course time. Feel free to
visit Eddy's restaraunt on property or drive a short distance downtown
to enjoy one of Montgomery's local eateries.
Please note the physical height and weight requirements to
participate in the Canopy Ridge Traverse.
All minors must have a
parent or guardian sign a waiver to participate.
