Trip Information: We'll get the permits so please join us for a float from Graves Creek to Foster Bar on this lodge trip including Black Bar, Marial and Paradise Lodges. All food and lodging are taken care of once your boat hits the river; you just need to take your clothes. Weather can be from showers to swim suits on this wild and scenic stretch of the Rogue. Boaters without Class IV bloating skills should have solid Class III skills. We have experienced rafters that have done this run many times and will show you the river. We take 20-30 people on this over-four-decade annual trip. Put-in is Friday morning and take-out is Monday noonish, giving enough time to get back to Portland by late evening. The $540 cost per person covers the food, lodges and permit. Your shuttle and Thursday evening lodging, such as at Galice Lodge, are arranged and paid for separately. It's a beautiful trip so please come along!
