Eligibility & Safety

Essential Eligibility Requirements

Every guest on an Orange Torpedo trip needs to meet a set of physical and mental criteria so the whole group can enjoy the river. Here is the short version.

• Swim in whitewater and swift current while wearing a PFD, and take an active part in your own rescue.

• Get in and out of the boat four to ten times a day, on your own or with help from a companion.

• Follow your guides' verbal and non-verbal instructions, even in stressful moments.

• Manage your own personal care, medications, food, water and clothing, on your own or with a friend or family member.

• We make reasonable modifications so more people can join, as long as they don't fundamentally change the trip or significantly increase its risks.
