American River Recreation is one of the few original outfitters on the Middle Fork American River since 1979, specializing in whitewater rafting in California. The Middle Fork American, rich in history and blessed with breathtaking beauty, cascades through one of the deepest and most remote canyons in the mid-Sierra. Unique in whitewater rafting California trips, this river offers the entire spectrum of river adventure with crystal clear water. The pace of this 18-mile whitewater rafting California journey alternates between exciting class III-IV rapids and mild class I-II stretches. One highlight is Tunnel Chute rapid, where the river thunders through a narrow chute before calming and flowing through a cavernous 90-foot tunnel blasted by 19th century miners. Another highlight of whitewater rafting in California is the awe inspiring Ruck-A-Chucky Falls. This 25 foot drop is surrounded by huge granite boulders and must be portaged. If you want adventurous whitewater rafting in California, the Middle Fork American is for you!
