Please Note: Oregon
weather is variable and can change very quickly; in order to guarantee your
comfort, it is necessary to prepare for a wide range of weather conditions.
Long underwear, (wool or polypropylene) does not take up much space and is
effective insulation in wet or dry conditions. Fleece outerwear is popular with
our guiding staff as insurance against the cold. Remember that cotton
is not effective in keeping you warm and actually makes you cold when it gets
wet.
Please call the day before your trip for an updated weather
report. |
Trip Itinerary |
|
Generally, we meet at 7:00 AM
or pick up in town at 6:30 AM. The staging area for the trip is our office at
325 Galice Road in Merlin, Oregon. You will need to pack a lunch, so plan
appropriately. You will be loaned a dry bag for your belongings (PACK TIGHTLY).
Soft duffle bags are convenient for packing your belongings; the duffles can be
slipped in and out of the waterproof bags with ease. Hard suitcases do not work
as they will not fit into the bags. For your convenience, waterproof bags are
available at our office the day before your trip . Everyone will be fitted with
a life jacket when you meet your guide at the boat ramp.
Transportation is provided
round trip from our office. You can plan to park your car in our parking lot
while on the trip. At the end of the trip, our shuttle bus will return you to
the office by 4:00 or 4:30 PM(earlier take-out times must be arranged in
advance.).
You are welcome to bring a
camera and/or a camcorder. We recommend you purchase a waterproof bag or case
for your camera or recorder. Rogue Wilderness will assume no responsibility for
the loss or damage of your camera, camcorder, your prescription glasses, or
your personal fishing equipment and tackle you might want to bring for the
trip. Should you break or loose one of the guide's fishing rods or reels, you
are required to reimburse the guide for the loss. |
