Hudson River Ducky Shuttle - 06-27-10

North Creek Rafting Company is now offering inflatable kayak (ducky) trips on the Hudson River Gorge and other rivers when levels allow. Duckies are a great way to get up close and personal with the river. Previous rafting experience is required.

A ducky is also a great shuttle vehicle. After dropping the raft trip off at the put-in, I park the bus at the take-out spot. North Creek is just another 5 miles downstream, so Ellie and I float home and avoid the need for a second vehicle.
It's the next best thing to running the Gorge today.


Ellie loves the river.














We came upon Tom Sawyer's raft.















The river is very relaxing to Ellie.
