The Denali Outdoor Center's Alaskan Nenana white-water rafting tour traversed the eastern boundary of Denali National Park for about 22 miles (a half day trip). The white water on the Nenana River in Alaska ranged from class II "mild water" float trips to class III/IV "Whitewater action". The guide, Adam, did all of the paddling.

Everyone had to remove their shoes and put on the heavy duty socks which cost $5 a pair on this date. The boots were really hard to get on. Then came the suits and life-jackets.

The first pair of boots they gave to Karen Duquette really hurt her feet and she was in pain and not too happy. She could hardly walk, Finally after complaining a lot, they changed her boots later while on the bus.
