<p>rafting on the American River
American</a> River - Davis Wiki</p>
<p>Whitewater rafting (with Outdoor Adventures) is in a way the lifeblood of the program. The majority of people that participate in an OA adventure do so rafting. OA is one of the largest commercial rafting outfitters in the state. They hold permits that allow for many dozens of people to go rafting a day and have a fleet of over 12 paddle rafts. Outdoor Adventures only utilizes oar boats to haul gear on longer trips. The nature of OA's raft program is mainly focused on class III rviers, though they offer a few class IV and V trips during the summer. Guide school is during Spring Break. </p>

Outdoor</a> Adventures - Davis Wiki
Outdoor Adventures is one of the largest university outdoor programs in the United States. They run trips and classes in a variety of disciplines year round. Part of Campus Recreation, student fees help support the program, although it still costs money to go on trips. Trips are open to everyone in the general public with discounts to students and "university affiliates". Trips are somewhat cooperative in nature, meaning that participants will often carpool to locations and coordinate food on multi-day trips. They offer a wide variety trips every weekend as well as certain types of night classes and longer trips during vacation periods. Outdoor Adventures offers fun for all ages, including youth programs and trips that are held during the summer. </p>
<p>They also have a great Rental Center where you can rent most types of equipment that you'd need to do one of the trips on your own, for a reasonable price. They don't rent downhill skis or snowboards, but you can find telemark skis, bear canisters, sleeping bags, tents, snowshoes, backpacks, and a host of other adventure-related equipment. A price list can be found on their website, or you can pick up a form in person. It is also a great place to hangout - good music, fun people, a variety of books, picnic tables outside and comfy couches inside. </p>
