Gear

230172603_831026d310A trek out to Cache Creek for a private whitewater rafting or kayaking trip takes you along a fairly scenic section of Route 16, especially in the spring. But you will quickly realize that you better not have forgotten anything on the checklist when you were packing up your gear. If you happen to forget something, like your boat, you can forget the trip for the day. There are no places in the area the rent gear.

Gear Tip

You can rent most of the gear you’ll need for a Cache Creek rafting excursion, but a drybag is always nice to have if you want to keep food or clothing away from water. Watershed makes the best, completely watertight drybags on the market.
