The
southern slopes of the Brooks Range offer good rafting potential,
with relatively easy logistics, fine rivers and beautiful scenery.
Using Fairbanks as the gateway for your expeditions, we arrange
a schedule or charter flight to Bettles. Here you can be outfitted
with rafts, canoes and depending on what additional equipment you
need, everything from gas stove to bear proof food containers can
be provided. Once your expedition is equipped, a bush plane takes
you and the equipment to the starting point of the float.
