Here at Ohiopyle State Park in Pennsylvania , going over the falls has become a great spectator sport. Although a few brave souls have gone over the falls.This happens only one time a year and goes all weekend long. Usually mid way through the season in August. This one is Buck one of our guides here at White Water Adventurers. Buck is a little different than any guide you may used to seeing. Buck is hearing impaired, he has been deaf since birth. That has not stopped him from any activity he wishes to pursue. Buck also plays on his High School football team as well. Whether you are looking to for a DC Weekend Trip or a Family Vacation, come see the spectacular site of kayakers and thrillseekers going over the Falls.

This is just one of the beautiful sites you can see here  at Ohiopyle State Park. This photo was taken by Brandi one of our employees here at White Water Adventurers. Near where our Family Rafting Trips begin. Planning a DC Weekend Trip ? Stop in Pennsylvania just to see what we have to offer. No traffic jams on our Beltway.




I had never been to the Cheat River before and a few of my friends were going and asked me to go. So i was all excited the night before when we were camping close to the area. Well over night the river levels came up alot, at this point i was very nervous. Thanks to the great guides at White Water Adventures, i felt safe and like i could have fun. I ended up having a great time, Chad was our guide and is a great guy. He works as a firefighter in DC and makes the quick trip on the weekends to run the Cheat river. This was a great experience and I would do it again and again. 

You might think that it was too cold for Pennsylvania white water rafting, but we had a trip today. Everyone donned plenty of cold weather gear (wetsuits, booties, and gloves) and headed for the river. They all looked quite colorful in their blue suits, and red life jackets.

Our wetsuits are farmer john style (like bib overalls) and come with either a nylon jacket or neoprene paddling jacket. So...you might be wondering, just what do you wear under a wetsuit? They must be right up against your skin for maximum effectiveness. Bathing suits are generally the preferred attire.

Part of the fun of Pennsylvania rafting is getting into a wetsuit in the spring. Not always the most attractive river attire but who cares when you get a day of fun on the river instead of being at work or school.
