Experience El Dorado Whitewater Media Day

Friday, May 17, 2013

The El Dorado County Visitors Authority invites you to join us on a spectacular guided rafting adventure on the West Coast’s most popular whitewater resource – the South Fork of the American River. An intermediate (Class III) river, the South Fork American River is suitable for kids 7 to 75! This is the river where James Marshall’s gold discovery started California’s famous 1849 gold rush, and today the South Fork is California’s most popular white water river. An El Dorado County white water rafting trip combines the river’s natural beauty, rich historical background, and exhilarating rapids into one great whitewater vacation experience.
