With warmer spring weather on tap – now is the time to think about a run on the North Fork American.  This Class IV river relies on snow melt for its release – so its a spring run.  What a great mix of scenery and whitewater action!

The 2009 rafting season is starting – we should have some new images on here soon!

Summer river flows

The short answer:  yes  (5 days a week on the South Fork American – 7 days on the Middle Fork American)

The long answer?  Scott @ Mother Lode already did the work here: http://www.theamericanriver.com/news/2009/03/2009-rafting-flows-confirmed.php

Wall of Shame – First Post

Welcome to our Whitewater Rafting picture blog. 

Here at Hotshot Imaging shoot zillions of pictures on the South, Middle and North Forks of the American river each summer and some of the more interesting shots end up on our “Wall of Shame”.  We’d figure we would share some of these online in our new blog.  Check back during the summer for new stuff!
