Utah Whitewater Gear will open half day (10am-2pm) July 3rd and CLOSED July 4th for the observation of Independencae Day! Happy 250th, We feel blessed and fortunate to be here; celebrate safely and THANK YOU for your support!
Go Paddle Utah's Intro to Paddle Sports: Boat Demo & Skills Day is a free, hands-on event at Deer Creek State Park designed to let participants test-drive a massive lineup of top-tier kayaks, packrafts, and paddleboards with unlimited 30-minute demo sessions. While there are no formal classes or provided meals, attendees can get expert on-water guidance from experienced mentors, practice basic to intermediate techniques, and connect with an inclusive paddling community.
Planning a private river trip should be exciting, but the fun often fades once logistics take over. Gear lists end up in spreadsheets, meals in note apps, flows in saved links, and responsibilities scattered across group texts. Important details get lost, and after the trip, the memories and hard‑earned info usually disappear.
Whether you’re just starting out or looking to tackle more challenging rapids, becoming a skilled paddler is a gradual process of learning, pushing limits, and growing in skill and self-assurance.
