Safety is our #1 priority at Bear Valley Rafting.

Bear Valley Rafting COVID-19 Update

To our Valued Customers,

Safety is our #1 priority at Bear Valley Rafting. As a result, we are an established leader in safety standards for the Payette whitewater rafting industry. It is our goal to promote outdoor exploration and adventures in the safest way possible. Our 2020 season was a huge success on the following guidelines we put into action.  None of our employees contracted Covid-19 and we believe strongly it was because we took things very seriously!  Bear Valley will continue with the same protocols as we embark on the 2021 season. Including our staff being fully vaccinated at the start of the 2021 season.

We want to update our guests on what we are doing to ensure safety throughout the development of COVID-19.
We will enhance the cleaning and disinfecting of our facilities, vehicles, equipment and food services using the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommended standards. We will be supportive and accommodating of guests and employees affected by COVID-19.

We have been monitoring the situation closely and will follow the guidelines of the CDC, the World Health Organization (WHO) and local authorities in response to COVID-19.

We recommend embracing the outdoors in an active and healthy way. We want our guests to feel confident when engaging in activities with Bear Valley Rafting. As a result, we have added special care and additional consideration to our employment policies, cancellation policies, and cleaning procedures (in accordance with EPA standards) while keeping the interest of our employees’ and guests’ health and safety top of mind.
