Sobre
Fatos rápidos: O Rio dos Sonhos Dourados conecta o Lago Alta ao Lago Verde, serpenteando por 4 quilômetros de pântanos e florestas. Os remadores compartilham essas águas com castores, lontras e ocasionalmente um urso negro avistado nas margens.
Destaques: No seu ponto mais estreito, o rio se comprime para apenas 3 metros de largura, forçando os remadores a navegar por um túnel de galhos de salgueiro pendentes. A água se torna de um âmbar brilhante no fim da tarde, colorida pelos taninos que saem das raízes de cedro, dando ao rio seu nome dourado.
Dicas de quem conhece
- Bring a waterproof bag for your camera because the best photos are possible right from the water, and surprise showers are common even in summer.
- Start early in the morning to avoid crowds and have the best chances of seeing beavers and herons.
- Wear waterproof sandals or water-resistant shoes because you will definitely get water in the boat when passing through the rapids.
- Finish paddling before dusk because the weather in the canyons changes quickly and can become cold.
