    Kern River Outfitters is undisputedly the best rafting company out in Kern River with the best guides that make the time memorable. I, also, had Patrick as a guide when I went rafting and he is totally a down to earth guy. Also, the content in this page is amazing, I love the narration done by you guys.

    You guys should try raft backpacking. Just raft down the river, then each night find a nice spot along the banks to set up camp. I did a week long trip on the Rogue River in Oregon, one of the best weeks of my life

    You can't have more fun than this! I need those fun people in my life. I'm always looking forward to exciting & thrilling AA episodes where there's none other than the greatest. Such nostalgic times. Literally enjoying the skits & conversations of every moment I watch you guys! Thank you for making my days just that much better.

    This is a great piece for Kern Rafting, looks like an amazing full service rafting trip! The Kern krew seem absolutely friendly, inviting, and totally chill. Loved the meaty not so little short guys, I can't wait for Mt. Whitney! When is that coming?
    Andrew - Try a Michelda. A mexican drink with - Clamato, Modelo or Cornoa or any other mexican beer (better with modelo) - lots of fresh lime juice - salt - valentina (hot sauce) - and tajin. Absolutley perfect refreshing drink and defintley better than a bloody mary.

    Growing up in So.CA. my family camped on the Kern about a dozen times before I was in school, all I could remember was the small beaches and big boulders.... (Just like I remember) That was in the early 60's. Thanks....

    @TailEnd88 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    That outfitters sure does create a memorable experience. The guides have a "surfer" attitude that is quite entertaining. This type of variety creates good flavor for your channel.
    The clamato beer is a classic mexican beer cocktail called a "michelada". It's exactly like a beer bloody mary. Premade ones are not great, but properly made ones are fantastic. I don't think they taste clammy at all. I love how open minded Andrew is about weird flavors.

    Very Nice! Best Company on the Kern River. So good to see some footage from the BIG 2017 year without rafts in the trees, boats flipping, or customers swimming for miles. Great video, class act, and perfect song!

    Many years ago I went white water rafting in the Smokies with a group of friends and it was such an awesome experience! I need to do it again and try to convince my family go with me.
    But my day was only an 1 hour river ride, not an extensive camping trip. Looks like A LOT of fun.

    What a GREAT adventure video!!!! My wife and I live in Kernville, a block away from the river.... we are so glad all of you had a blast and a little taste of adventure and freedom on the river we love! Hopefully you and your friends will be back one day soon! As a matter of fact, the Kern River is running FAST/ GREAT again with all of the rain we've had here, and we haven't even begun the snow runoff!

    I'm very late to the party here but I love your channel and this video is a bit of a cherry on top for me, on a personal level. My great grandfather owned a mine on Greenhorn Creek, so it was nice to see you guys in the area. It brings me so much joy that so many people enjoy the area he put so much of his life and heart into.

    I thought of you guys while I was shopping in REI in Burbank today. 😀 I'm itching for an adventure soon!

So simple yet actually so necessary in my life... a gentle reminder to let go and let everything fall into place. Thanks again for the videos!

    Hi guys the kern river is a wonderful place I live about 20 minutes drive from the mouth of the canyon and go there all the time I have not yet gone rafting but I will this next year as long as the river is high enough it has been low the last few years, the fishing is good, look up kern river tea cups, and the slide you may missed this but there is always next time Thomas may do some exploring to find a fun time for you all next time your in CA
    THANKS FOR THE VIDEO. JoP

    • @stretchyfungus5025
      @stretchyfungus5025 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      TheSkyzepplin1 yes. That would be the lower kern. Upper kern has better rafting imo but it is more dependent on what kind of snowpack we get in the winter whereas the lower depends on what is let out the lake. Well I take that back they both depend on the snowpack lol.
