River Resources
You’re out on the water, and a fellow river rat says, “Why don’t you tie the ducky to the deadman?” You might start looking for a corpse, but not if you’ve read the guide to river rat lingo. Cruise ahead and find out more about other sources of rafting information and how you can help with river conservation. You’ll also be able to unmask the individuals responsible for bringing you this interactive feature.
