Kayaking the Salt River

We booked an excursion with Sam and Sharyn for kayaking at the Saguaro Lake Guest Ranch.  Whether you have kayaked before or not, this is a great way to go.  They provide the kayaks, life jackets and the transportation back to the ranch at the end of the trip. All you have to do is show up!

We started out with the life jacket fitting and kayak orientation.


Then we had a little test before we could take off down river.

Once we passed our test, we were free to head down the Salt River, below the beautiful cliffs.



We paddled for awhile in complete peace and serenity.








Then we caught up with all of the tubers and the river got a little more crowded.  Tubing is also a really fun activity on the Salt River!


Toward the end of our trip, we all had to move over for the Sheriff boat.  They almost ran over Sam.


They rescued a little girl that had been separated from her family.  She was a super brave little thing, and it was so nice to see a happy ending!  

What a great time with great friends!  It is so nice to be getting back out into the world, or at least our little corner of Arizona.
