___ Don't forget Fishing License and King stamps

___ Optional items may include: windbreaker shell jacket and pants, down bomber jacket, long underwear, bathing suit, cameras, SAT phones (cell service will not work reliably in most of Alaska's bush), GPS, binoculars, rangefinders, waterproof wristwatch, flashlight/headlamp (for late season trips), extra batteries, Motorola TalkAbout radios, small sewing kit, small waterproof valuables container...

Please do not bring additional snack foods carried in your personal gear!

In specific cases it can be a violation of certain  National Parks rules and other restrictions.


- All these contents should easily  fit in one 15x18x42 inch, very heavy-duty watertight river duffle that we can provide. Routinely filled dry bag weight should tip the scales under 45 pounds or less with enough room leftover for proper bag closure.


- Keep in mind that the security scanning  machines in airports are generating higher levels of radiation since the Sept. 11 World Trade Center attacks --- your electronics devices can be damaged and film is at risk of having flawed images and may show substantial image degradation if passed through security checks in both carry-on AND checked Baggage.

* ADVICE - get film developed prior to heading home or Go Digital! Digital Media will not likely be influenced. Pelican, Otter, or Underwater Kinetics camera cases suggested.  


We will not shop, ship, or provide Alcoholic Beverages on any and all rentals going out or trip departures.   If you would enjoy having Alcoholic Beverages on your float trip that is not a problem... however it should be picked up by you prior to our rentals going out or a your trips departure.  Keep in mind this is added gross weight on Bush planes.  Often the overweight picture is that gear, food, or beer gets left behind.  We require you to acknowledge, sign, and date the ALASKA RAFT CONNECTION ALCOHOL WAIVER prior to any and all rental equipment going out or your trip departures.
