So have you been missing out on summer fun and not getting to see some of the high school or college friends you had planned on? Well Ohiopyle is a great place to get the ball moving on your summer weekend getaway with those friends. Whitewater Adventurers offers you the ability to rent your own raft.
I know this sounds weird but my friends and I just wanted to take our time going down the river and catching up on old times and stories. Well I came to find out that Pennsylvania raft rentals is really not that common, because of some restrictions they put on taking your own raft down the river. My friends and I were so glad that the Ohiopyle State park lets you rent your own raft and take the challenge of guiding your self down the river. My friends and I have had so much fun rafting and hanging out in Ohiopyle that we now are going to make it our yearly outing to come back and visit and even try upper yough which is class 5 rafting. We are so excited and hope that everyone can experience the fun we had.
I was recently on a family vacation in Colorado and we decided to go on a white water rafting expedition. We went with
Buffalo Joes White Water Rafting Company. It just so happened that our white water rafting guide was Alex. Alex is from Ohiopyle, Pennsylvania,when we got talking he told us when we got back home to Washington , DC we should check out the Ohiopyle State Park it was great for families and it was beatiful.
He use to be a guide there and recommended us to go rafting with
White Water Adventurers. We decided to check it out a few weeks ago when we had those extremly hott days.
They had everything in that small little town that was right in the middle of the Ohiopyle State Park. My family went rafting on the Upper Yough which was the class 5 part of the river they offered. I wanted to check out the town and relax so I rented a bike and rode on the bike trail and also had a little lunch at the coffee shop right there at white water. This was great, my family loved it and wanted to come back with their friends. I would recommened
White Water Adventures to anyone, they have a friendly staff who is there to make your family vacation one to remember.

Come to enjoy the YOUGH Festival in Friendsville Maryland. Home of the Upper Yough.
2009 Yough River Festival
The Yough River Festival Group cordially invites you to attend the
Annual Yough River Festival to be held on Saturday, August 22, 2009 beginning at 3pm in the Friendsville Town Park...
The festival idea came about because visitors and locals alike realized how much the Youghiogheny has enriched their lives and the Town of Friendsville itself. The idea was to show our appreciation of the river as an eco-system and to celebrate its presence in the community by creating festive, fun-loving activities through music, dance, games, crafts, water activities and environmental demonstrations, as well as providing good food, vendors, music and relaxation.
In the past several years, the festival has grown in interest and in attendance we are celebrating once again with the ducky race and fish population demo on Bear Creek. We are also creating a new approach by naming a "Wisdom Keeper of the River", displaying an art and photo contest, and by hosting a 5k run with the support and experience of the Garrett Recreational Trails Committee.
The festival starts at 3pm Saturday afternoon in the Friendsville Town Park. Come experience the educational exhibits and demonstrations on the river, food vendors, artisans, white water company booths, games for children and competitions. Live blue grass music will draw in a crowd of vacationers, locals, sports enthusiasts and river adventurers. The turnout keeps growing each year with last year’s attendance at around a thousand attendees. Entertainers including, the Half Time String Band, Smith & Roberts, and String Fever will be offering high energy blue grass music just perfect for end of summer entertainment and dancing into the evening.
Net proceeds from the Festival go to local not-for-profit organizations such as the Yough River Watershed Association to support their actions to protect and preserve the Youghiogheny River.
Please gather together with us as part of this festival and community to observe the sparkling beauty and endless wonder of the Youghiogheny River, as it flows through our lives and town. Your festival experience will be a part of an ongoing venture to highlight the wonder, mystery, diversity, and complexity of the Youghiogheny River and its eco-system.
The Upper Yough a class 5 river is among the top ten commercially run white water rivers. Do you have what it takes to take on this challenge?

You know when winter is over, here at White Water Adventurers when the guide staff stops in to say hello. We are experiencing some warm days, and when that happens our crew returns. First signs of a great summer is, the more staff that we see, that warmer the summer will be.The guides will soon be ready for some White Water Rafting Trips in Ohiopyle State Park. Pennsyvania rafting will be at it finest come April. the Class 5 Rafting will soon start as well, First trip is April 17,2009. Plan your Family Vacation To visit us for white Water Rafting this summer.
The weather if finally getting nice, but the best part about all of the rain that has come our way would be the the water levels for white water rafting. The water levels have been at "high water" for some time now. This is making even the lower yough feel like class 5 rafting, which is amazing. Its nice going at this time of year, because anything over four feet is considered "high water" and you get to have a guide in your boat with you so this makes you feel much better about the great experience.
