Registration takes place at 7 Main St. in Charlemont, MA. Park in the unpaved lot, then go up the stairs to the kiosk outside the red building; guides will direct you to the appropriate pavilion.
You are required to wear sneakers or other shoes that can be secured to your feet. Flip-flops and Crocs are not allowed.
Expect everything you bring on the raft to get wet. In cooler weather, wool and synthetic layers (polypropylene, nylon, fleece) are recommended. Avoid cotton, as it will keep you cold and wet throughout the trip.
