Guide, gear, snack & BBQ
Raft the Deerfield River’s Monroe Bridge Dryway for an advanced Class III–IV whitewater run with experienced guides. You’ll break for a snack mid-trip, then return to base for a full barbecue meal.
Ages 14+ only. You must be comfortable in the water, able to paddle and follow instructions, and you may be required to swim aggressively in rocky, fast whitewater. You are required to wear secure footwear; no flip-flops or Crocs.
More than 30 days before your trip date: a $10 per person cancellation fee is retained. 30 days or less before your trip date: you forfeit the entire cost of your trip. Operator cancellations due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances receive a full refund or credit. No-shows are charged the full price.
When should I arrive for my trip?
Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your trip time so the trip can start punctually. If you are late, you may not be accommodated, and late arrivals are not refunded.
Where do I check in and park?
Registration takes place at 7 Main St., Charlemont, MA. Park in the unpaved lot and head up the stairs to the kiosk outside the red building, where guides will direct you to the appropriate pavilion.
Do I need to sign a waiver before arriving?
Yes. Each member of your party needs to sign a waiver before arriving. Participants under 18 must have a parent or legal guardian sign for them.
What should I wear, and are there footwear rules?
Expect everything you bring on the raft to get wet. In cooler weather, wear wool or synthetic layers (avoid cotton). Secure footwear is required—wear sneakers or other shoes that can be secured to your feet; no flip-flops or Crocs.
What is the weather policy?
Trips run regardless of weather, and river conditions can vary. If Zoar Outdoor cancels due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances, the decision is made just prior to the trip start time and customers receive a refund or credit.
