Round trip shuttle service from Reno/Truckee to the SF American.

Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays through March.

Cost:
$40 per person: Ten (10) person minimum. Twelve (12) maximum
Cost does not include river access fees.
Advanced reservations required. Credit cards accepted. Reservations: 775-747-1587

Shuttle includes round trip transportation from Reno and Truckee, including river shuttle, deli lunch and beverage, equipment stowage and kayak trailer. How easy is that?

Sierra Nevada Outdoors (SNO) will provide the service and is fully insured, licensed and bonded, but SNO is not responsible for kayak tie downs. Each individual is personally responsible for securing their own boats on the trailer. All other personal gear is stowed inside the bus. An assumption of risk and waiver form is required.

Please note: Folks can paddle either section of river they want. There are two pick ups at the Chile Bar take out. One at 3:30 PM and another at 5:30 PM. Only one pick up at the Gorge take out. If you take out at the first Chile Bar pick up, you have to ride to pick up the Gorge Paddlers! After picking up the Gorge paddlers, we return to Chile Bar take out and depart home from there!

Schedules are obviously important to keep, and it is your responsibility to meet the scheduled departures and arrivals. However, obviously, we will not leave any one behind at the final departure points. It is expected of each individual to be prompt. SNO can not guarantee departure times due to this. Complaints will be directed to the individuals whom made the schedules late.

Peace and paddling....
