Per Mike Garcia, owner of Northern Lights and outdoor expert:

  1. Know your route on the rivers (put ins, take outs, obstacles, etc.)
  2. REFER BACK TO #1
  3. Make SURE the ability level of you and your group is up to the task
  4. Always bring a drybag with dry spare clothes, snacks and water
  5. If renting equipment, go over the rental list carefully with your rental company
