San Rafael Rafting Trip
I don’t know if I ever told you about my San Rafael rafting trip. I signed up for the trip through Carbon County Recreation…. the trip was a disaster but I got a few good pictures to take home!
I don’t even know how to swim so I was a little nervous about going on rafting trip in the first place. So, you can imagine my surprise when I showed up for the San Rafael rafting trip and found out that they decided to change it to a canoe trip.
This is the start of a really bad story, and yes I did end up in the San Rafael River several times. Somehow I got paired up with a crazy old man that thought it was funny to tip the boat every time he get a chance.

This wasn’t my regular picture taking trip like I usually take but I did manage to get a few pictures to bring home with me.

I will finish this San Rafael Rafting Trip Report later
