My favorite thing to do is white water rafting. My family and I are avid white water rafters. I've gone every year since I was five and I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world! But if I could change one thing, it would be to have more skilled Deaf rafter friends. The people I go rafting with don't sign and it puts a damper on the whole experience. :pissed:

I've spent the better part of the last several years looking for Deaf rafters and found a few but not enough! If you're a rafter, hit me up and let's see if we can make plans for this spring and summer!

Wow, pure white water!! Looks like so much fun. I have a couple videos and pictures on my other computer but it's nothing fancy with animations and stuff like that one.
I started training to become a guide a few years ago but didn't complete it.

Colorado is a great place. Ever been rafting in California?
 
I have done some WW rafting when I was a bit younger. We used to go to ohiopyle. It is the ultimate experience between man against nature. I have not gone in quite a few years since I had lost contact with some of the people I used to go with. I dont think the experience is the same if you go with a group o people you never met before. Would love to get back on the water again :(

Been there and done that. My friend, my parents and I went white water rafting, of course in Colorado. :) i think it wasnt far from Gunnison.
 
Last fall, my family and I went to the Whitewater rafting in Maine. It was my first experience. At first, I was nervous but I went thru. I had a great time! It's awesome!
I am looking forward to going there again with my sister next Spring or summer. It's in Deerfield, MA this time. I can't wait!
I am gonna post a picture of me and my family in other thread after this message. See the Pictures & Videos!!!
 
oh, I see, sorry I missed this post more about your experiences rafting; I replied to your pic in other thread.
I'm very happy for you that you had a good time:D
 
A couple I know asked me to join them on a rafting trip on a section of the Amazon River. Unfortunately I am getting a bit long in the tooth for that. :aw:
