2-DAY MINI EXPEDITION ON THE MENOMINEE RIVER

exclusive has a new name!

This trip is your one-stop shop adventure for the whole family. It is the highest quality and most exclusive trip we offer. From the moment you walk in the door, we handle everything, from shuttles and trips to meals and gear. With us doing all the heavy lifting, you and your group can enjoy all of the amazing adventure opportunities that the Mini Expedition has to offer.

On this trip, you will experience the Menominee River in a way that no other rafting company can. The Menominee River is one of the wildest and is consistently referred to as a world-class whitewater experience.

Our 2-day mini expedition allows you to experience both the exhilaration of rafting and the relaxation of camping. Your guide will ensure that every aspect of your trip is covered. Don't worry about lifting a finger; however, if you're eager, we welcome your involvement in camp and food preparation. It's your trip; make the most of it! The rafting is world-class, the food is to die for & the stories of your Mini Expedition will be told for years to come.

With the volume of these rapids, the Menominee River boasts characteristics similar to those found on the Colorado River. Late in the summer, when other rivers are low, and some may be even un-runnable, the dam-released Menominee River will continue to produce high-volume whitewater and outstanding rafting experiences from our put-in in Wisconsin to our take-out in Michigan where you will experience class III and IV rapids on the Menominee River.
